Currently, on Lubuntu Trusty, I have no problems with Skullcandy Hesh 2 and:
* kernel 3.13.0-63-generic #103
* pulseaudio 1:4.0-0ubuntu11.1+kxstudio1 (I did not test with the standard Canonical version, sorry)
* bluez 4.101-0ubuntu13.1
* blueman 1.23-git201403102151-1ubuntu
though I will note it's not always as seamless as I would like. I've discovered elsewhere people suggesting that the adapter is turned on after pulse does its check for bluetooth adapters. That leaves you two choices:
1. pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover && pulseaudio -k (note actually sending a KILL signal to the daemon may get it unstuck if it's not behaving)
2. remove the conditional from /etc/pulse/default.pa regarding loading module-bluetooth-discover
neither of which are particularly elegant, but oh well.
This and similar issues are ultimately an aesthetic issue, though, and deserve a separate bug report, as this more general one has brown extensive enough. From my experience, audio sink service (A2DP) *IS* possible with current versions.
I'm inclined to call this fixed, unless I hear otherwise from folks.
