Bug Description

Hey!

I bought a bluetooth headphone, but the next and previous track buttons don't work with my Ubuntu Phone, because it doesn't support AVRCP. So please implement this feature. :)

From BlueZ side we provide an input device which already reports the necessary key events we now only need someone to use them.

From what jhodap told me the sound indicator might be the one responsible for this.

Sorry, the volume buttons work, just the next and previous track buttons don't.

There is at least one more important functionality of AVRCP missing in Ubuntu Touch right now besides play/pause/stop/next/previous. It is transmitting metadata information on the track (artist, track name, album, etc.) to the connected bluetooth device. For example, many car multimedia systems support this feature.
