I've read that the following command should disable automatic connection of bluetooth audio devices:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist DontPageAudioDevices 1
However it doesn't seem to work in Sierra. Does anyone know about it?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12.3)
Yes, I have the same issue, even with:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist DontPageAudioDevices 1
I checked the bluetooth.plist file, the command is well-written, but still my Sony Headset connects automatically to my Mac (Sierra 10.12.5).
For me it is an inconvenient if I want to connect my headphone with my Sony walkman, because there is a conflict between the mac and the walkman (connection disconnection connection... each 2 seconds...).
Using Bluetooth Explorer I have seen that my headset is defined as an 'Audio device', so it should be ok... I don't know how to solve this issue too.
If someone could help us...
Best regards.
Using terminal commands is, IMHO, a very bad idea.
Bluetooth device, if on, will automatically try to connect.
