My speaker pairs with Ubuntu 14.04, but sound doesn't work and there is a lock near the bluetooth indicator. I tried this solution without success:

PulseAudio can not load bluetooth module

  • It's not automatic. After pairing you still need to explicitly select that audio output. –  Sep 25 '16 at 00:53

  • I solved in this way. I have installed pavucontrol. In terminal: sudo gedit /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf add this lines [General] Disable=Socket Enable=Media,Source,Sink,Gateway Save and exit from the editor Then: sudo service bluetooth restart cancel bluetooth speaker setup, and setup it again. – tiltmug Sep 27 '16 at 13:31

Copied from Question owner's comments from the question.

I solved in this way. I have installed pavucontrol. In terminal:

sudoedit /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf

Add these lines: 

[General] 
Disable=Socket
Enable=Media,Source,Sink,Gateway

Save and exit from the editor

Then: 

sudo service bluetooth restart

Cancel bluetooth speaker setup and set it up again.
