Description vltg0903 2016-07-14 10:13:43 UTC 
After upgrading to the latest kde packages, audio via bluetooth/A2DP does not work any more, headset profile (HSP/HFP) still works. I've already played with multimedia systemsettings and pavucontrol to fix it, but to no avail, high quality bluetooth audio output is dead, even though pavucontrol shows activity on the bluetooth device's activity monitor (or whatever you call that thing that flickers if there is audio to output).

Reproducible: Always
