Using bluez-0.96 and pulseaudio-1.xx I could use bluetooth headphones

without problems using blueman-1.23 to connect to an a2dp sink.

With bluez-0.99/0.101 and pulseaudio-2 I can no longer connect and

blueman gives the following error:

Stream setup failed

I see that bluez has moved to the MediaEndpoint format and that I need a

/usr/local/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf for the first time, but things still don't
work (details below), there are no error messages to speak of, am I doing
something wrong?

I can't tell for sure but I can reproduce similar problem with a2dp sources. I
actually fails with some devices only, so chances are that it's due to some
race condition.

This seems to be a regression introduced recently, which I didn't have time to
check further.

In any case, could you provide us with the audio.conf you're using?

----------------
Here's the latest attempt at an audio.conf, which BTW, "make install" does not copy to the file system, despite "--enable-datafiles"

[General]
Enable=Source,Sink,Headset,Gateway,Control,Media

Master=true

AutoConnect=true

[Headset]
HFP=true

MaxConnected=1

FastConnectable=false

Note that I'm using the latest mac mini server, which seems to have an odd BT setup:
