The problem appears to be with setting up the input sink, which I
couldn't care less about. If any knows of a way for bluez / pulseaudio
to force a device to just connect as an output-only device (e.g., normal
bluetooth speaker), I think I'd be fine, as I have no problems with
numerous other bluetooth speakers.
If not, I think for me the key is to figure out why the input sink
cannot be established due to the "device or resource busy" message. If
I could figure out how to a detailed debug / strace of bluetoothd when
it tries to establish the input sink, that'd be most helpful. I've
tried before w/o finding anything helpful.
For me, I think the issue is not with pulseaudio but truly with bluez.
Given this, I'd like to request that my bug 1691556 be re-opened and
unmarked as a duplicate. From my perspective, no evidence or
explanation has been given for why my report was marked as a duplicate
as this one. The errors I've been continually reporting are different
than those reported by others, and the fixes that seem to work for
others do not work for me.
For the record, here are the pulseaudio and bluez packages I presently
have installed on my Ubuntu 16.04.02 LTS 64-bit on an Intel NUC i5
(NUC5i5RYH):
