MBP with Sony SRS-x5 Bluetooth Speaker

Having major bluetooth pairing problems with my new Apple Mac PRO and recently bought Sony SRS-X5 portable bluetooth speaker.

Both devices happily pair with other bluetooth devices (e,g, MAC PRO with Sony Bluetooth headphones DR BT-101) but NOT MBP and Sony SRS-X5 TOGETHER!!

I'm fairly certain I'm doing the right stuff to enable it to happen but no luck yet.

Any advice please as there's precious little on either Sony or Apple web support pages.

The Sony SRS-X5 speaker could be paired with another Bluetooth device in your area. Turn off bluetooth on all other devices and then power cycle your Speaker. Try to connect again.

Resetting the Sony speaker solved the problem.
