Hello Mattes, the bluetooth dongle works fine for me. But I rather would like to be able to connect it to my laptop with the build in bluetooth. But appart from that nothing you described worked for me. I only see it as output device, but never as input device. I am using BLuez 5.37 and pulseaudio 8.9 on Gentoo. Other BT device seem to work - or lets say worked, I have to try it again with another headset if I find it...
