Created attachment 788075 [details] Screenshot showing a sound settings shortly after connecting a bluetooth headset Description of problem: If I connect my bluetooth headset, it appears as an output option in sound settings. However after a short time, it appears twice. A bit later it is listed three times, after a couple of hours it can be listed 10 or more times. See screenshot. All the entries point to the same physical hardware, so they all work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Connect a bluetooth headset. Open Sound in System Settings. Wait. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
I see the same problem. Fedora 19, control-center-3.8.5-1.fc19.x86_64. I don’t even need to wait (although waiting also seems to produce extra entries for me). I just try to switch the bluetooth headset from “telephony mode” to “A2DP” mode or vice versa. This triggers adding more lines for the same device. And I cannot really choose whether I want to use “A2DP” mode (good sound quality) or “telephony mode” (bad sound quality but microphone available). It seems to switch “randomly”, I cannot understand how to select one of these modes at all. See attached video.
Created attachment 803965 [details] duplicate-device-entries-continue-to-appear-when-trying-to-switch-to-A2DP-mode-in-gnome-control-center-sound.ogv Video showing how the problem can be triggered by trying to switch to A2DP mode.
The problem seems to be independent of the bluetooth device used. The original reporter’s screen shot shows “Sennheiser MM450”, I tried with a “Nokia BH-214” and a “SW50”, both devices trigger the same problem.
This worked fine in f18.
Created attachment 819677 [details] bluetooth-headset-microphone-cannot-be-used.png Now on Fedora 20 Beta RC2, the duplicate entries do not appear anymore, *BUT* I cannot use the microphone anymore. See attached screenshots. The “Output” tab of the sound settings shows [High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink)] only in the combobox to select the profile for the Nokia BH-214 headset, clicking that combobox achieves nothing, no [telephony] option is shown. The “Input” tab shows only the internal microphone of the laptop, not the microphone of the headset.
Everything worked fine in f18, both in f19 and f20 it is broken in different ways.
Same thing. Fedora 20. Sony SBH20 bluetooth headset only presents as an output device (A2DP). Microphone is not working.

Yes, this is still present in F21. I'm not allowed to reopen or change version. Someone else please?
