On Fedora 18 with all updates, I've tried two different USB
Bluetooth dongles, one a generic Cambridge Silicon dongle and one
much more expensive dongle from BlueRigger (BTD-400). With each of
these two dongles, I attempted to use two different headsets with
microphones. With both headsets and both dongles, the A2DP (high fidelity) profile worked fine -- I was able to listen to music through the headset with this profile. However, with both headsets and both dongles, the HFP/HSP (microphone + speakers telephony profile) fails to work. With both dongles output doesn't work at all -- no sound comes out of either headset with the HFP/HSP profile selected. With the Cambridge Silicon dongle, input seems to work -- I see the meter moving in the sound settings when I talk into the microphone -- but I can't be certain that it's working because I can't play back the sound because of the broken output. Input doesn't work with the BlueRigger dongle. Both headsets work fine with the Bluetooth hardware built into my ThinkPad T420i running Fedora 18. I contacted BlueRigger about this and they tested their dongle on Fedora 18 with two different headsets and observed the same behavior as I did. BlueRigger said HFP/HSP works fine with their dongle on Ubuntu. I do not know whether this is a regression from Fedora 17, since I bought the dongle after upgrading to Fedora 18, and I don't have a Fedora 17 system to test on. I've filed a bug about this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=905283 . I know I'm biased since this is impacting me, but this seems like a somewhat serious defect. Any suggestions for things I can do to help get it resolved would be much appreciated. jik |
