Sounds setting in Unity is not letting me to configure my bluetooth headset as output device, simply because it is not showing the settings of that device, but always show the settings for my default sound card.

settings show for my default device settings not shown for my other device I have alwady tried this:

sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio

sudo apt-get install alsa-base* indicator-sound* libcanberra-pulse* osspd* osspd-pulseaudio* pulseaudio* pulseaudio-module-bluetooth* pulseaudio-module-x11* unity-control-center* unity-control-center-signon* webaccounts-extension-common* xul-ext-webaccounts*

  1. As mention by Charles Green, installing/reinstalling pavucontrol solves it!

    sudo apt-get remove pavucontrol
sudo apt-get install pavucontrol

    After that, I immediately wasn't able to use Unity's sound settings, but after a reboot I was able to.

    Thanks!
