iPhone 6 as Bluetooth A2DP Source in 15.10

I've tried connecting my iPhone 6 as a bluetooth A2DP source (i.e. stream music from it) to my Ubuntu 15.10 laptop (a Dell Latitude E6440), but I can't get it to show up under "Choose a device for sound input" under "Input" in "Sound Settings".

I tried with my Android phone (Sony Xperia Z3 Compact) and it showed up without any problem.

I tried Googling around for a solution to this, but so far I can't find a reason why the iPhone would not show up, nor a workaround to fix it.

Any suggestions?

It seems this problem solved itself over time, without me doing anything (other than installing the normal updates). My iPhone now appears as an Input device in sound settings.
