Are you running ofono? Do you have a modem in your system?
Without modem, ofono will refuse to connect headsets. If you
don't have a modem, you can use the emulator that comes with
ofono. I have been testing this about a year ago. I got to the
point that ofono connected the headset, but it was not visible
in pulse at that time.
Actually you don't need to compile pulse without the native
backend. There is a switch for module-bluetooth-discover,
headset=native/auto/ofono.
