Syslog or systemd journal should contain more detailed error messages. Why are you using sudo with the pactl command? Are you running pulseaudio in the system mode? Normally you would never use sudo with pactl, because pulseaudio runs under your regular user account. And normally you wouldn't need to manually load module-bluetooth-discover anyway, because it's part of the default configuration (the askubuntu "solution" advises you to remove module-bluetooth-discover from default.pa, so maybe that's why you don't have it loaded by default, but that doesn't explain why you're having problems in the first place). -- Tanu https://liberapay.com/tanuk https://www.patreon.com/tanuk
