After upgrading from 17.04 I had this issue. Neither could I connect to an external audio device via Bluetooth.

I started pulseaudio in verbose mode (-vvv) and found that the module "module-switch-on-connect" is already loaded when it is tried to load again. I commented out the following lines in /etc/pulse/default.pa:

.ifexists module-switch-on-connect.so
load-module module-switch-on-connect
.endif

This workaround solves the problem permanently. I was able to use my USB Bluetooth adapter to connect external playback device.

The module "module-switch-on-connect" could be loaded by default or some dependency...
