Followup-For: Bug #725610

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
      Switch bluetooth headset to A2DP mode
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     pavucontrol -> Switch to A2DP mode
   * What was the outcome of this action?
     Cannot switch to A2DP mode
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
     Clear sound with A2DP

currently A2DP sound with bluetooth stereo headset seems to be broken.

Here the output:

adrian at g6 (~) % /usr/bin/pacmd set-card-profile 2 a2dp
Welcome to PulseAudio! Use "help" for usage information.
>>> Failed to set card profile to 'a2dp'.

/var/log/messages output:

Oct 13 15:08:48 g6 pulseaudio[21031]: [pulseaudio] module-bluetooth-device.c:
Profile not connected, refused to switch profile to a2dp

Sincerely,

Adrian Immanuel KIEß
