Package: bluez
Version: 5.42-0.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Please update package to 5.42, which has support for transport
selection (BR/EDR vs LE) (see changelog at [0]). This is needed
for proper support of Bose QC35, which has LE and BR. Audio only
works over BR and bluez < 5.42 does not switch from LE to BR, so
audio only works if the headphone did not connect via LE (so it's
kind of random if audio works).
