Bluethooth audio not working after 10 II update to 4.4.0.72

General
#1

In 4.4.0.?? bluetooth audio was working as it should.
After the update to 4.4.0.72 it doesn’t work anymore.
I tested so far:

  • Sony XM3 1000 something
  • Cheap generic bluetooth speaker

Before pairing:
systemctl status bluetooth.service ouputs

● bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service

Pairing seems successful from the UI. The speaker makes a connection sound.
After pairing systemctl status bluetooth.service ouputs:

Although I get different messages sometimes. I’ve seen a red line telling me:

profiles/audio/avdtp.c:handle_unanswered_req() No reply to Start request

Does someone know how to continue troubleshooting this, or better yet, how to solve it?

Did you try removing the devices in Bluetooth settings and re-scanning?

#3

The first thing I tried. Also rebooted.

I had to enable NFC some time ago: Xperia 10 III, SFOS 4.4.0.64: no bluetooth-pairing with headphone B&O H9i

I can pair, there is just no audio, and there are errors, but pairing is successful.

#6

Sorry to bump. Bluetooth audio still doesn’t work. Any hint towards a solution would be very welcome.

#7

Does the bt device show up in pactl list sinks?

Added it to [wiki] Collecting debug information

Thank you for your reply, and for the wiki link. I will try your suggestion, and other applicable suggestions from there, and will reply here ASAP.

I should be happy, but feel more puzzled.
The device didn´t show up. I disconnected, to see if there was any difference between outputs. There wasn´t. I reconnected and did pactl list sinks again.
The device shows up. And now works. At least the sony headphones do. I have no reason to doubt other devices will work.
I have tried connecting multiple BT audio devices many times. I have no clue why my phone now decides to work as expected.
Thank you for your help. Also thank you Mark and Matthias.
I don´t know what to select as solution now. I’ll just select this message I think, just to mark this as solved.
