Help on connecting a PS3 headset

Help on connecting a PS3 headset

[Andrea]

Hi,

I've been trying to manually connect a PS3 headset using bluez 5.16 without success.
It does work using KDE Bluetooth tools (still based on bluez 4), but as I would like to use it on a
headless box, I need to do it via CLI.

Using bluez 5.16 (both in Fedora 19 and on Arch on a Pi) I can pair the device but when I try to
connect I get

[NEW] Controller 00:15:83:0C:BF:EB localhost.localdomain [default]

anything else I should be doing to get a connection?

I think it is a regression of 5.16 vs 4.xxx
I've just installed Fedora 20 (using bluez 5.16) and the KDE Gui bluetooth tools can't connect
either with a very similar log from bluetoothctl

this is the output while I was using the KDE Gui tools.
it pairs well, connects, but the disconnect immediately.
at the end I tried manually froom here, with no success

I don't think the kernel version matters, as it is 3.13.6 in all cases.

any sort of traffic log I could provide to help resolving the issue?

I've logged a failed attempt using hcidump and wireshark.
maybe it can be useful

Hello,

Wireshark is able to open both files. More interesting is "blue.log".
It seems that you want to connect via HSP or HFP (only supported by
headset). In "blue.log" headset asks (SDP) your bluez about "Handsfree
Audio Gateway" or "Headset Audio Gateway", but bluez return empty
records, so they must be disabled.

sounds plausible, but as I have not touched anything,
they must be disabled by default.

cant find any configuration file that mentions anything similar.
on Arch there is /etc/bluetooth/main.conf but it does not seem to help.
In Fedora 20, not even that.

Do I need some extra package? kernel module? audio bluez plugin?
Something like snd-usb-audio for usb sound cards.

thanks for your help

I seem to understand what happens

this is the device info

Device 00:22:A6:16:E3:F0
        Name: Wireless Headset
        Alias: Wireless Headset
        Class: 0x200404

        Paired: yes
        Trusted: no
        Blocked: no
        Connected: no
        LegacyPairing: yes
        UUID: Headset                   (00001108-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb)
        UUID: Handsfree                 (0000111e-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb)
        UUID: PnP Information           (00001200-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb)
        Modalias: usb:v12BAp0010d0140

and we know that HSP and HFP have been dropped from Bluez 5
Could this explain why connection fails?

it seems I need to learn about oFono and Pulseaudio

Yes, this is it.

By the way:
1. Why were those profiles removed?
2. It seems that HSP is not supported :) (and never been?)
