[lucid] Blueman Pulseaudio plugin cannot be loaded

Hi..
I noticed another problem: while pairing with my device it connects well, but blueman cannot recognizes the connection.
On console blueman output is

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/blueman/Sdp.py", line 280, in on_sdp_changed
    s = pickle.loads(base64.b64decode(value))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/pickle.py", line 1374, in loads
    return Unpickler(file).load()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/pickle.py", line 858, in load
    dispatch[key](self)
KeyError: 'x'
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

Annoyng say that device isn't connected if it is in fact.

I also have this bug. Lucid nightly + updates
The error I get when it tries to load the module is:

on_load (/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/blueman/plugins/applet/PulseAudio.py:96)
PulseAudio version: 0.9.21-63-gd3efa-dirty
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/blueman/plugins/AppletPlugin.py", line 105, in _load
    self.on_load(applet)
  File "ka", line 115, in on_load
    if int(version.split(".")[2]) < 15:
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '21-63-gd3efa-dirty'

I was able to make a workaround for it though. I just changed line 115 of pulseaudio.py from

  if int(version.split(".")[2]) < 15:

to

  if int(version.split(".")[2].split("-")[1]) < 15:

The script couldn't convert '21-63-gd3efa-dirty' to an int, so i split again at the '-'
Cheers!

Also, you need to change the line at 218 to add the second split. Then it works very nice!

mmbossoni - I ran into the same problem as you. The attached patch fixes it. Save it to /tmp and run the following in the shell:

cd /usr/share/pyshared/blueman
sudo patch -p1 < /tmp/blueman121.on_sdp_changed.patch

Voila!

Thanks for the patch...
I will try it asaic.

About the splits I think the workaround will fail if pulseaudio version becomes 0.9.22, without the extra "-something"

Making changes as described in #3+#4 helps. Although I don't understand why did xax200 took 2nd (index 1) part, and not the 1st (index 0) - taking 1st part seems more logical to me! If you take 1st part, you are safe from a future update that removes the -x-y-smth from the end of version string. But if you take 2nd part, you'd better setup an exception handler (that's what mmbossoni talks about in #7)

bug still present in maverick. please apply the patch to the ubuntu-package.

ubuntu 10.10 2.6.35-25-generic
blueman 1.21
pulseaudio 0.9.21-63-gd3efa-dirty
after editing and patching "PulseAudio.py" bug still present, blueman pulseaudio module is active, but pulseaudio send message: "failed to initialize pulseaudio bluetooth module" and bluetooth audio still don’t work.

Is this still a problem in 13.10?

Closing due to age.
If a similar bug appears in 13.10 please open a new report.
