The solution described here helped all of a sudden:

disappear-from-sound-settings-and-how-can-i-get-it

All you need is to set card profile. First look up your device ID:

~$ pactl list cards short
0   alsa_card.pci-0000_01_00.1  module-alsa-card.c
1   alsa_card.usb-Generic_Turtle_Beach_USB_Headset_0000000001-00-Headset    module-alsa-card.c
2   alsa_card.pci-0000_00_14.2  module-alsa-card.c
8   bluez_card.C8_84_47_04_21_6F    module-bluetooth-device.c

Then you use the above ID to bind the profile to the card:
~$ pactl set-card-profile bluez_card.C8_84_47_04_21_6F a2dp

The device shows up in the list again.
