The Pavucontrol on my Xubuntu 13.10 detects my bluetooth headset, but only after I type the command

sudo alsa force-reload

After a few seconds the headset appears in the configuration tab.

I have also tried inserting the line

load-module module-switch-on-connect

in the /etc/pulse/default.pa but it doesn't help. I have tried purging and autoremoving and reinstalling everything right from alsa to pulseaudio and pulseaudio-module-bluetooth. Nothing works.

Is there a workaround to load the headset without using the command force-reload ? To make the pulseaudio daemon recognize the device automatically ?
