Hello,
I try to connect my bluetooth headset.
Firstly, I start the bluetooth daemon:
$ sudo /usr/libexec/bluetooth/bluetoothd
Why I run bluetoothd with sudo?
Because otherwise, it fails:
$ /usr/libexec/bluetooth/bluetoothd
D-Bus setup failed: Connection ":1.175" is not allowed to own the service "org.bluez" due to security policies in the configuration file
Secondly, I connect the bluetooth headset:
$ bluetoothctl
[bluetooth]#
spierre@desktop:~$ sudo bluetoothctl
[NEW] Controller 00:60:57:33:62:AE BlueZ 5.37 [default]
[NEW] Device 00:22:37:34:9A:56 Philips SHB9150BK
[bluetooth]# power on
[CHG] Controller 00:60:57:33:62:AE Class: 0x000104
Changing power on succeeded
[CHG] Controller 00:60:57:33:62:AE Powered: yes
[bluetooth]# agent on
Agent registered
[bluetooth]# pair 00:22:37:34:9A:56
Attempting to pair with 00:22:37:34:9A:56
Failed to pair: org.bluez.Error.AlreadyExists
[bluetooth]# connect 00:22:37:34:9A:56
Attempting to connect to 00:22:37:34:9A:56
Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed
Why I run bluetoothctl with sudo?
Because otherwise, it hangs then I need to do Ctrl+C:
$ bluetoothctl
[bluetooth]#
Why there is a failure please?
Do you think that the "native headsets" option should be set to "yes" instead of "no" in my pulseaudio-8.0 configuration*?
Thank you.
Best regards.
