Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Once snd-bt-sco loaded and connected to a bluetooth headset, we can't select it into the gnome-sound-properties because it's simply not shown in any of the comboboxes except the Mixer track one (quite useless if you can't select it as output).

The device is correctly shown in gstreamer-properties and in alsamixer and works just fine if you use it by directly specifying it into the software but it'd be great to be able to choose it as system default in gnome-sound-properties.

It'd be great if this bug can be solved before Gutsy as I'm working on the Bluetooth Headset software which point to the gnome-audio-properties for choosing the freshly activated bluetooth device as system default one.

it's an issue on hardy, I have bluez-audio installed.

I have to

a) manually setup a bluetooth dvice in my .asoundrc

pcm.bluetooth {
   type bluetooth
   device 00:13:17:70:7E:F9
}

b) either set that to the default, or in reality tell the media player to use the bluetooth device (and only xmms allows that easily).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.
