Can you specify which versions of BlueZ and PulseAudio you're using?

Also, please check:
a. which modules are loaded during the issue by doing "pactl list
modules" or similar.
b. which bluetooth devices BlueZ registers on D-Bus: "test-device
list"/"bluez-test-device list" or similar. You can alternatively use a
tool such as d-feet.

Cheers,
Mikel
