comment pavucontrol doesn't show Bluetooth headset
OK, it appears that it is not necessary to add load-module module-bluetooth-discover to default.pa. After doing so, trying to start PulseAudio fails to start, giving the error Module "module-bluetooth-discover" should be loaded once at most. Refusing to load. Everything is working if I only add the line for module-switch-on-connect to default.pa and remove the preexisting line for module-switch-on-port-available.

OK, pacmd list-modules isn't showing module-bluetooth-discovery or module-switch-on-connect. Perhaps another package is needed?

Shouldn't it be module-bluetooth-discovery (y on the end), from what I see in Google search results? Also, do other packages have to be installed in order to load those modules, and if so, which? When I run modprobe module-bluetooth-discovery or modprobe module-switch-on-connect (as root), it doesn't find the modules in question. Are these "modules" different from kernel modules? And should the existing line load-module module-switch-on-port-available in /etc/pulse/default.pa be removed/commented out?

OK, sound worked after installing pulseaudio-module-bluetooth and restarting pulseaudio. There's one issue though - I can't control volume using the laptop's multimedia keys. When I hit up or down, the volume OSD changes but the actual sound level doesn't. In pavucontrol, I don't see any volume settings changing, for the Bluetooth headset, for the speakers/headphone jack, or for an individual program.

That was it, it seems to be working just fine now!

Please take a look at the edit I made above. I may have made some headway on the source of the error, but I'm not sure how to fix it.

I have only an Intel integrated card, which is why I'm using the mesa driver (or whatever the default is, I haven't touched the graphics card configuration). In any case, I tried running the command ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.s0.1, but it had no discernable effect.

comment Overscan slider missing in Nvidia settings
Actually, they're not. The issue has intermittently returned, with no discernable pattern. Any help in diagnosing this would be appreciated.

After updating everything once again, the option has somehow returned. So things seem to be OK (for now).

@Michael K The first screenshot wasn't mine, it was one that I found online. Once this issue showed up, I couldn't go back and get a screenshot of the previous state. I don't know what the driver versions were, but I had the default driver in Ubuntu 11.10 at first (when overscan was working), and whatever it updated to after I ran the Update Manager.
