Cannot 'forget' Bluetooth Device
-
@mw4jet Thank you, I will let you know how it goes.

Its a long lasting bug that was already there on the initial Canonical devices. Reason unknown I guess ^^ probably an inheerent problem of the Bluez daemon
-
@flohack I did not use BT much because the pause/play buttons on my headset did not work, but now they work, but as for the bug, I will try what stanwood above posted. My desire to have a working UT device that I can at least do something like that in terminal is one reason it's attractive.
I wish I could help in its development but I am not a coder in any sense of the word! LoL

@mw4jet Sorry to say but those changes for buttons might be reverted since we faced a ton of regressions lately with upgrade to Bluetooth...

Well, that will be bad.

Well, that is simply how software development works. Things get developed and tested, and sometimes decisions need to be made that if some things bring improvement to a certain use case, but breaks other existing use cases.

I get it, but the button control of BT was a big plus that finally showed up. Oh well.

I am not very informed on the workings of a cell phone and what it takes to make one work correctly, but I had a Samsung SG6 something or other with Windows phone 7 at least 10 years ago that the bluetooth headset had pause/play or answer/end, and volume up/down and a voice assistant that flawlessly announced text messages and I could reply by voice alone.
UT cannot run bluetooth with a pause/play function? I know I am oversimplifying it but it seems as though that was figured out a long time ago. I am disappointed is all. Handsfree bluetooth is a deal breaker for me. I need it to function in order to carry the device. Well I had it for a short time anyway.
Any idea if and when it's might return?

No.
Maybe in next OTA ?
If it's debbuged by then. -

I wouldn't expect it to land in 16.04 anymore. 20.04 is around the corner, and it already contains a much newer Bluetooth stack. The one from 22.04 even, if I am not misremembering.
