It is to the last comment that you really need to address the issue of soloing with a bard. As Midget Gems says, you don't need to defeat everybody, and from a sense of roleplay, perhaps you shouldn't even try.
Thieves have it bad (single class anyway) in terms of proficiencies and equipment. Bards can have a wider selection of weapons and armour; they can even use composite bows which is a huge advantage on its own. Spells can make up for the shortfall in terms of actual thiefly skills, so there isn't too big a problem by being without them. Thieves have no such access to these spells.
As a solo thief you fight alone. As a solo bard you do not have to.
Fighting is inevitable in games such as these - even if only to complete a quest and remove an end-of-level bad guy. For the most part thieves and bards should avoid conflict. Afterall, if they don't, shouldn't we have gone for a fighter in the first place?
