unique bus name

	Quoth the 'AudioDevices' wiki:

	'The ":X.Y" in the following examples is the unique bus name
of the audio service. You get it in the reply to the ActivateService
method call:
	$dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez /org/bluez org.bluez.Manager.ActivateService string:audio'

	When I make this call I get three numbers back, for example:

	method return sender=:1.0 -> dest=:1.1
	   string ":1.2"

which is the 'unique bus name of the audio service'?  I think 1.0 is
the source (i.e., the bluetooth transceiver); the destination would
seem to be :1.1; what is :1.2 ?
	When I try to use either of them to CreateHeadset I get:

	Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name :1.x was not provided by any .service files

for 1.1 or 1.2

	/var/log/debug contains:

Jan 30 13:14:29 randytool hcid[8110]: Child PID 8115 got the unique bus name :1.2
Jan 30 13:14:29 randytool hcid[8110]: name_listener_add(:1.2)
Jan 30 13:14:29 randytool hcid[8110]: /org/bluez: org.bluez.Database.AddServiceRecord()
Jan 30 13:14:29 randytool hcid[8110]: Service owner exited: :1.2
Jan 30 13:14:29 randytool hcid[8110]: Audio service (audio) exited with status 1


	Does this indicate that the service record was created then
deleted immediately?
