Sad state of Bluetooth support for PulseAudio

This repo explains some of the bluetooth headset issues on Linux: https://github.com/pali/hsphfpd-prototype

> But because neither audio server is interested in implementing functions for embedded displays, neither power supply daemon is interested in implementing audio routing, encoding, decoding and playing functionality, neither input layer software is going to process battery and power relayed functionality and also it is not up to the modem software to register input devices into kernel and process button press events, the only reasonable solution for this problem is to provide another software which would own HSP/HFP AT modem connection for remote Bluetooth devices and would forward commands, signals and requests to appropriate application.

Very interesting read. I can understand the frustrations of both Pali and the maintainers.

A lot of projects that are core to the Linux desktop are in a similar state. Last I heard, libinput was still being maintained by a single person.
