| Yeah, but this covers A2DP only, right?

why not, it looks as it should. But I don't know much about alsa routing...

I think the btsco kernel module does nearly what you are looking for
(only in kernelspace). It takes an sco socket, reads the data and writes
it to the alsa buffer and vice versa. Of course you would write it to an
alsa device, not the internal buffer :)

Should be possible to rip it apart and run it as a userspace program,
dropping all kernel stuff and keeping mostly the thread that does the
copy stuff.

You can also have a look at the btsco command line daemon that does the
connection handling. A combination of both should do what you want.
Maybe *g*

good luck, and make sure to re-destribute your sources, as it will be
quite interesting for us I think :)

best regards,
~   Lars
