From looking at the source, it appears that profile switching was intentionally disabled for some reason (commit 71bd458: bluetooth: Disable profile auto-switch policy for headsets).
I did find a proposal with some discussion on the mailing list, in particular: "[RFC v0 4/5] bluetooth: Use profile availability to auto-switch profiles"
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2013-February/016182.html

It also appears that HF_RD role is unimplemented, either because there are other problems with it, lower level support is missing (bluez), or the authors are unaware of it.

Either way, I'll post a question on the Pulseaudio mailing list about it.
