My apologies. I posted this to the pulseaudio mailing list but now I
think it may be a bluetooth issue.
I have a bluetooth headset JBC LIVE650BT. It worked perfectly with Ubuntu
16.04. It currently works perfectly with an ipad.
On Ubuntu 20.04 I can pair with the device but then pulseaudio does not
see it.
The output of
$ bluetoothctl info <MAC>
is

AFAICT there is nothing in this output that suggests this is an audio
device. Is this normal?
