Bluetooth Speakers

Hello,

I am pretty much aware that this issue is probably unrelated to XFCE itself. I'm asking here because I always had good feedback from XFCE users, and because I'm using the tooling that is by default packaged with Xubuntu.

So: I tried this with Xubuntu 16.04 and 16.10. It's pretty much my first attempt at having bluetooth setup on Linux ever.
I have a bluetooth headset, and I'm trying to pair it.
Sometimes, it asks me to accept a PIN. I hit Allow, but then it goes straight to "Failed to add device" without an error message or anything and I don't find anything relevant in my syslog...

Somehow, I can tell that the first pairing attempt does something, because subsequent ones don't ask for PIN confirmation and fail right away.

Is there anyone with a similar experience please?

Thanks
Doodloo.
