Good day: using Opensuse 12.3 with standard desktop kernel from repo,
pulseaudio under Gnome.
Steps to reproduce:
1. clean boot of machine.
2. USB Bluetooth adapter Belkin which works reliably
3. Issue command as root "hciconfig 0 sspmode 0" - this is essential
otherwise bluetooth device not recognized.
4. Open gnome sound settings from user menu; onboard sound device is
present, only one entry
5. switch on bluetooth device Samsung WEP 475
6. device is recognized and paired, an entry appears in PA list
7. about 10 sec later a second entry for the same BT device appears in the
list
8. after playing with the windows sometimes the second entry will go away
9. at least one of the entries will work and PA shows amplitude changes
registering for the input device
10. sometimes clicking the wrong one will cause Gnome settings window to
crash, but BT and PA are still running and device is working and gnome
window can be opened again.
Clearly the multiple entries thing is not normal behaviour.
Might be a BT issue, or a PA issue, or a Gnome issue or other.
It's a tossup where where to start, can I rule out the BT side?
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

A small point to add to steps to reproduce:
11. with two entries showing in PA, shut down of BT device removes the
latest added entry from the PA list leaving one entry for the device
even though it is not active.
