I am also affected by this issue, my Sony MW-600 headset does not appear in the Input section of Sound Settings while in A2DP mode. I know the device supports this and I'm sure it has worked on previous versions of Ubuntu.

With the device connected I ran pactl list cards which yealded :-

Card #1
 Name: bluez_card.30_17_C8_8A_96_F3
 Driver: module-bluetooth-device.c
 Owner Module: 24
 Properties:
  device.description = "MW600"
  device.string = "30:17:C8:8A:96:F3"
  device.api = "bluez"
  device.class = "sound"
  device.bus = "bluetooth"
  device.form_factor = "headset"
  bluez.path = "/org/bluez/838/hci0/dev_30_17_C8_8A_96_F3"
  bluez.class = "0x240404"
  bluez.name = "MW600"
  device.icon_name = "audio-headset-bluetooth"
  device.intended_roles = "phone"
 Profiles:
  a2dp: High Fidelity Playback (A2DP) (sinks: 1, sources: 0, priority. 10)
  hsp: Telephony Duplex (HSP/HFP) (sinks: 1, sources: 1, priority. 20)
  off: Off (sinks: 0, sources: 0, priority. 0)
 Active Profile: a2dp

Is the 'device.intended_roles="phone"' set to the right option, the main use we all seem to want is that of a headset? Should the a2dp 'sources' switch be set to 1 ?
