Yes, I did not say something like this. > also perhaps you > are trying to connect to a device that has already been paired?

You need to send pin code or verify that pin code matches. Then both devices (laptop and headset) put other device into "trusted" list and allows connect to themselves. > Also codec > selection should only come into picture with user input, we shouldn't > be changing codecs by policy since that will only increase the > problems, so should work out the preferences when initiating the > connection so if the headset plays nice and remember it then nothing > has to be changed. Currently my patch which I sent to mailing list uses pulseaudio profiles for codec selection. So if we want to stay with this, then codec will be still chosen by bluez or remote device, but via pactl set-card-profile (or GUI equivalent) it would be possible to change codec. Also in future we could implement something like "remember last used codec for this device" and restore it after new reconnect to have stable and predicable codec selection/negotiation. I think that both ideas make sense and is something which user expect. -- Pali Rohár pali.ro...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
