I switch bluetooth audio sources going to my AVR frequently throughout the day. After an update, Ubuntu seems to continue sending something like a keepalive to the bluetooth receiver despite no audio being played on the computer. This prohibits switching to my phone as the audio source. For example if I play a youtube video in Chrome, and then stop the video and then play Amazon Music or Spotify, the device is connected but I get no audio. If I close Chrome, no change. If I disconnect Ubuntu from that bluetooth device, audio starts coming through. No change to bluetooth receiver, but there was a Samsung update the other day. Interestingly, I disconnected Ubuntu from my BT device. Connected my phone, played some audio, then disconnected my phone from the BT device. Ubuntu then automatically connected back to that BT device and prohibits my phone from using it. This was clearly a change to the bluetooth stack that doesn't release the BT device when audio is stopped by the application.
