> When trying to play mp3 soundtracks in banshee music player with a bluetooth headset as the audio playback device, the soundtrack progress bar does not progress from left to right but remains stationary at the leftmost end. However, the number of minutes and seconds the current soundtrack has been playing for is correctly shown beside it in plain text.

This actually sounds like a Gstreamer issue. I'm marking this low priority,
because you are meant to use pulsesink and then use the sound preferences or
something to do with PulseAudio to shift Banshee dynamically to the bluetooth
headset. Why don't you try that instead?
