Instead of pacmd, you can use pactl. "pactl list" will dump a lot of information, and device names will be included in that. If you're using module-bluetooth-discover, then you'll also need to enable module loading for bluetooth to work (module loading is disabled by default in the system mode for security reasons). That's also needed for loading module-loopback at runtime. The configuration option is "allow-module-loading" in daemon.conf. -- Tanu
