CG: Many thanks for the tip. I had similar issues in Ubuntu 13.10
whereas 12.04 worked fine. I had hoped 14.04 would have solved it. I
also agree with you about Blueman. Without it I would have given up on
Bluetooth on Ubuntu long ago. Regards Colum :-D

Colum,
After Blueman did its job, you have to activate the 'audio sink'
component, personally i leave both on.
-But- after that you can just go to the sound options and switch to
a2dp on the go, if blueman initiated audio sink, it will show up in
the options, no need to use the audio profile route.
Ofcourse resetting pulse audio is a req. also.
Currently i have a2dp on the ears and the mic on, at the same time,
because of this on the go switching in the sound options.
Its sad that Ubuntu doesnt use blueman or an implementation based on
it, this could be one of those 'it just works' scenarios, without
blueman it wont even pair my device...

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I found a bug in Ubuntu 14.04 !

  I tried to pair a bluetooth stereo headset (A2DP compatible). The
  pairing process goes well, but after that I can't select it on the
  audio preferences.

  When I select it, it only shows the last selected item options and
don't do anything. (he should switch to the headset output).
  I must mention that it worked very well on Ubuntu 12.04.

  This bug can be in the bluetooth stack or in unity-control-center or
  maybe pulseaudio. I actually have no idea.
