Bug Description
I'm trying to use Applie Airpods and a Sennheiser bluetooth headsets with Ubuntu (and Kubuntu) 18.04. They connect and work find in A2DP mode but are unable to connect in HSP mode rendering them useless for work as the mic only works in HSP mode.
I can see HSP mode in the dropdown in sound settings and can switch to it but the headset actually remains connected in A2DP mode. If I close the sound settings window and re-open it, I can see the setting reverted to A2DP.
I also tried pactl CLI util but it results in an error when switching to HSP
```
pactl set-card-profile 2 headset_head_unit 0|16:19:50
Failure: Input/Output error
```
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
