This is not a bug, but lack of support for headsets that only have the HFP (Handsfree) profile and no HSP (Headset) profile. Many current headsets only support HFP, and these won't work since pulseway doesn't support HFP only.

I find this ridiculous since there are a number of projects on git that have patched versions of pusleaudio to support HFP only headsets, so I wonder why this is not merging to the mainline of pulseaudio.

With everyone on their headsets doing teleconferencing during the lockdown, this limitation of pulseway has been exemplified.

Please have a look at it.
