http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=974230 Bug ID: 974230 Summary: bluetooth headset a2dp hsp/hsf problem Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: epistemepromeneur@free.fr QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- first thing : it is true also with leap 42.1 and tumbleweed i checked the problem that : - with a2dp there is no mic in pa and phonon thus no functional mic - with hsp/hsf there is mic in pa and phonon but no functional ear speakers and no functional mic with opensuse 13.1 pa 4.0 bluez 5.8 and pa 6 bluez 5.38 with opensuse leap pa 7 bluez 5.35 with opensuse tumbleweed pa 8 bluez 5.38 here https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Notes/5.0/ it is said : Changes at a Glance BlueZ 5 support (A2DP only) Notes for Packagers PulseAudio now supports BlueZ 5, but only the A2DP profile, which means that in case of headsets, only playback is available, the headset microphone can't be used. BlueZ 4 is still the only way to make the headset and hands-free profiles work. It's possible to build PulseAudio with support for both BlueZ versions, and that's the default behaviour. If you want to disable one version or the other, pass --disable-bluez4 or --disable-bluez5 to the configure script. here http://www.bluez.org/release-of-bluez-5-0/ it is said Remove internal support for telephony (HFP and HSP) profiles. They should be implemented using the new Profile interface preferably by the telephony subsystem of choice (e.g. oFono which already supports this) here https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Notes/6.0/ it is said Changes at a Glance BlueZ 5 native HSP (headset) support BlueZ 5 HFP (hands-free) profile support via oFono Notes for Packagers When building PulseAudio, it's possible to choose between "native" and "ofono" BlueZ 5 headset backends. They can be both enabled, but only one can be used at runtime. If you only need to support a bluetooth audio stack with oFono, then it's advisable to disable the native backend when building PulseAudio. Similarly, if you don't need to support oFono, then it's best to disable the oFono backend. If you need to support both alternatives, then you have to enable both. The runtime decision which to use is done via the "headset" argument of module-bluetooth-discover. The native HSP backend for BlueZ 5 depends on libbluetooth. It's a header dependency only, so the actual library doesn't need to be present at runtime. The oFono HFP backend for BlueZ 5 naturally introduces a runtime dependency on oFono. The minimum supported oFono version is 1.13. here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Bluetooth_profiles#Advanced_Audio_Dist... it is said a2dp "..audio can be streamed from one device to another " "..also, voice can be streamed from a microphone device to a recorder on a PC" my conclusion : pa with bluez can support a2dp with mic and can support completely hsp/hsf with pa >= 6.0 thus there is something badly built in opensuse software. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
