[Bug 437649] Re: bluetoothd Permission denied (13) when connecting A2DP headset

[Bernie Innocenti]

Thanks Murz. Your proposed workaround did not solve the issue for me. I
can now reproduce both on lucid and on oneiric, using the same headset.

This is the log from a session in which I successfully coupled the
adapter:

Dec 28 22:58:04 giskard bluetoothd[21144]: Discovery session 0x555555813e50 with :1.1088 activated

Dec 29 03:59:04 giskard rtkit-daemon[1920]: Supervising 3 threads of 1 processes of 1 users.

Now I disconnect it:

Dec 28 22:59:53 giskard bluetoothd[21144]: Disconnected from
00:1A:7D:E0:7B:27, /org/bluez/21144/hci0/dev_00_1A_7D_E0_7B_27

And this is gnome-control-center trying to reconnect it:

Dec 28 23:00:15 giskard bluetoothd[21144]: Permission denied (13)
Dec 28 23:00:15 giskard bluetoothd[21144]: Unable to get service record: Permission denied (13)

Dec 28 23:00:27 giskard bluetoothd[21144]: Unable to get service record: Permission denied (13)

I've also found this interesting error in the logs  from a previous
session:
