Last time I tried I think I had a similar problem (the CardAdded signal was never sent). On the BlueZ mailing list I was instructed to disable SELinux. I did that, but then I got distracted by something else, and I never continued my efforts of getting PulseAudio to work with oFono on my machine. If you're using SELinux, and you're compiling some of the stack (PulseAudio, oFono, BlueZ) yourself, SELinux might be your problem. Try disabling it. (I don't remember the exact command to do that, but hopefully your favorite search engine will help you with that.) -- Tanu
