Bug Description

In ubuntu 13.10/saucy I'm not able to create a sink for a bluetooth headset (it has worked with ubuntu 13.04 without problems). When I do:

> pactl load-module module-alsa-sink device=btheadset

I see the following in /var/log/syslog:

Mar 22 19:29:28 unke pulseaudio[9109]: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module
 "module-alsa-sink" (argument: "device=btheadset"): initialization failed.
