--- Comment #2 from Nikolay <mar.kolya at gmail.com> ---
I've tried that and I could not make it work.

The problem, as I see it, is that hangouts allow one to select output and input
before the call is started - there are just dropdowns in the settings dialog
that match sink/source in PA. Obviously BT mic is not there - so I cannot even
start the call - and my understanding is that before call is started browser
doesn't open sound devices meaning 'media.role' is not being passed.

That being said it feel odd to make browser to pass 'media.role' - browser can
have all sorts of apps like video players and games and god knows what - so
browser would need to somehow set that role for each individual tab - I do not
think media API for web sites even provides that capability.
