"Audio device got stuck!" with bluetooth after one minute

  • 772

On ubuntu 14.04 I have been connected to an audio device via bluetooth (bluetooth manager; audio sink). The audio plays on the external bluetooth device when I start an audio file with mplayer, but after 30 to 60 seconds, without doing something, I get the message 

Audio device got stuck!

and there is no more audio on the bluetooth device. Even restarting the bluetooth service with 

sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart

does not help - not even the bluetooth manager will restart. The only help is to restart the laptop, connect again with bluetooth only to lose connection again after 30-60 seconds...

How to find out what is going on?

  1. I meet the same problem. And I'm convinced that it is a bug triggered inadvertently. I solved it through restarting pulseaudio daemon:

    $ pulseaudio --kill && pulseaudio --start

    Sound come back.
