Well, that sucks. I'd like to use the speaker for music and the headset for audio conferencing. It doesn't seem like an unusual setup to me and having to connect/disconnect devices manually when someone calls me feels like a lot of unnecessary hassle.

Could you find some reference or at least suggest some keywords I could search on? I'm not that familiar with either Bluetooth or Pulseaudio. Shall I file a bug against pulseaudio at the new gitlab issue tracker (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/issues/)?
