This is ubuntu desktop. I found that if I did: sudo hciconfig hci0 lp HOLD,SNIFF
while everything was disconnected, then the audio started working properly. Now I'm back here because after a reboot it wouldn't connect at all, so I guess I need to fix the pairing or something. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1620636 Title: Fails to pair with Bose QC35 headphones Status in Canonical System Image: In Progress Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I am unable to pair the Bose QC35 BT headphones with Ubuntu, either Ubuntu desktop running 16.04 LTS with bluez 5.37 (also tried bluez 5.41 from installed from yakkety archive), nor using Ubuntu Touch rc- proposed build for Turbo #174.
