[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH v13 10/10] bluetooth: policy: Treat bi-directional A2DP profiles as suitable for VOIP

[Hyperion]

Bluez multi-codec support is no longer a subject since today :
So I propose to test Pali's patch in master and see if it gets any regression
reports. If automatic fallback to legacy profile works, there shouldn't be any.
