[arch-general] pavucontrol doesn't find pulseaudio

[Peter Nabbefeld]

Hello,

seems loading of jack support modules blocks loading of pulseaudio.

Still trying to get my bluetooth headset (EP 650) working with HSP (A2DP 
works, but only for speakers).

What I've found out so far:
- Pulseaudio can be run on top of jack, so any requests should be 
delegated to jackd first, then jackd should delegate those calls to ALSA.

- A2DP is designed for one-way-communication only, thus isn't expected 
to work with the headset's microphone (please correct me, if I'm wrong)

When I switch my headset to HSP, I can hear only some crazy noise, so it 
seems I need some filtering, mixing or codec for it.

Kind regards
Peter
