[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
I'm trying to remember where we were at here, but it seems like the answer is just that A2DP does not support a mic. So this isn't a software bug and it probably should not stay open. We do however understand people would like better automatic switching to headset mode when they need a mic.

Duplicate bug 1828393 suggests Bluetooth theoretically allows for two profiles to be enabled simultaneously. That would resolve this, but I don't know if it's true.

[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
Its a limitation of the bluetooth protocol. Windows and macos implement both A2DP and HFP and switch on the fly when microphone usage is requested by an app. HFP uses a low quality GSM codec so the sound quality will degrade when switching to that profile. It is possible to have multiple bluetooth profiles active on one device but A2DP and HFP are mutually exclusive due to bandwidth limitations. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508522 Title: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/508522/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
Do not know if they are going to merge it. You can look in discussion that developers do not want to autoswitch to hsp profile if application does not tell that to pulseaudio (because hsp profile has low quality). So e.g. when you start parec (for recording sound from some input device) PA devs does not want to use bluetooth hsp mode because it has low recording quality and they think that user should manually allow this... As you read discussion you could know that I do not agree with their statements and I want to automatically switch to hsp mode (from a2dp) when any application ask for recording.

From looking at the source, it appears that profile switching was intentionally disabled for some reason (commit 71bd458: bluetooth: Disable profile auto-switch policy for headsets). I did find a proposal with some discussion on the mailing list, in particular: [RFC v0 4/5] bluetooth: Use profile availability to auto-switch profiles http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2013-February/016182.html It also appears that HF_RD role is unimplemented, either because there are other problems with it, lower level support is missing (bluez), or the authors are unaware of it.

[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
There _is_ documented, approved support for using both HFP and A2DP together. Take it from the horse's mouth (i.e. the Bluetooth SIG): http://www.bluetooth.org/docman/handlers/downloaddoc.ashx?doc_id=49216 Headsets capable of both high-quality media playback and microphone input areclassified as having the role HANDSFREE WITH RENDERING DEVICE CAPABILITIES (HF_RD). Full implementation guidelines are in the document. So my guess is that there's nothing holding back implementing this. Yay! Like profiles for other sound devices, Pulseaudio should offer a profile like High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink) + Analog(?) Microphone Input (HFP Source) for such devices. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508522 Title: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/508522/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I guess the Windows way works somehow like this: The driver shows the mic even during the a2dp profile is active.

[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
I think that problem is that you can't use both profiles simultaneously because pulse always switches HFP when I select mic and doesn't stay in A2DP for audio sink. The ideal solution is when I can use A2DP for audio sink and HFP for audio source which is the way it works in Windows so I have high quality sound and microphone available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508522 Title: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/508522/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
Yes, obviously this seems to be anyhow tricky. Some people say that A2DP doesn't support unidirectionaly streams (ie D. Brodzik and SpudULike here in this thread or like nick parlante found out by googling). Some people say that it is possible but there are no headsets supporting it ( http://osdir.com/ml/linux.bluez.devel/2005-01/msg00187.html ) [1]. Otherwise it is working in other operating systems and also wikipedia says that is designed to transfer a *uni-directional* 2-channel stereo audio stream ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A2DP#Advanced_Audio_Distribution_Profile_.28A2DP.29 ). I don't have any clue about, what things are working and what aren't. I just see the problem. What would help: 2011 Alexander Skwar asked wether it is possible at least to switch the profiles automatically, depending on what are you doing (A2DP everytime you are just listening and HSP when starting a call with ekiga/skype). Colin Guthrie responded that they are working on it ( http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2011-September/011296.html / http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2011-September/011300.html ). But at least on my computer now with Ubuntu 13.04 and ASUS Zenbook UX31A, the standard choosen profile is HSP and therefore terrible sounding.

Looks like I've got this wrong. After a bit of a chat on #bluez-users on freenode irc I now understand that the microphone in my device, and probably that of the majority of other bluetooth headsets, is not supported in A2DP by design. I must have been using usb headphones for stuff like Skype to get the better audio quality and a working microphone.

[Bug 508522] Re: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile
I'll add a vote that this feature is definitely worth fixing. Little bluetooth speakers, headphones etc. are proliferating for audio outside of just phone calls. The gadgets all seem to include a mic, so you can answer calls when listening to music transparently (great for voip too of course). As mentioned above, other OSs handle this case. I suspect every college student on earth is going to have these speakers in a couple years, as it's such a seamless way to listen to music from the phone/tablet/etc. Googling around, it looks like A2DP does not support mic input. My guess is other OSs support this by hacking A2DP mode to also support using HSP for simultaneous input, though in the UI the user sees A2DP and HSP as two mutually exclusive choices.
