Bluetooth headsets with Pulseaudio

{
  hardware.pulseaudio = {
    enable = true;
    package = pkgs.pulseaudioFull;
  };
  hardware.bluetooth.enable = true;
}

After updating the configuration

nixos-rebuild switch

I had to restart the system for pulseaudio to load the bluetooth module.

pactl list should show the bluetooth module.

As I'm not using a desktop-manager I've configured the device from the command line following ArchLinux instructions

$ bluetoothctl
[bluetooth] # power on
[bluetooth] # agent on
[bluetooth] # default-agent
[bluetooth] # scan on
...put device in pairing mode and wait [hex-address] to appear here...
[bluetooth] # pair [hex-address]
[bluetooth] # connect [hex-address]

I've then played some audio and opened configured PulseAudio using pavucontrol. I changed the headset profile to "High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink)" for decent audio quality.
