Hi Fred,

I used the headset with a lot of alsa apps like
gnomemeeting, mplayer, aso, and non alsa apps thru the
oss emulation of alsa.
For gnomemeeting this is just fine because is also
intended for voice, but to listen to a movie on a 8KHz
mono headset is not so HiQ.
Anyway it realy works.
What I am trying to do is to connect it when I press
the button on headset and disconnect it when I press
the button again. So no need for special applet.
I think that will be nice to put some support for
btsco in kdebluetooth, but the right person to ask is
not me.
Maybe Brad or Lars can give more details of what is in
the future development for btsco.
I just modified btsco a bit to be able to use the
rfcomm connection accepted by kdebluetoothd and did
some other small changes to better fit my Jabra BT110.

Anyway, if I can help with something, just let me
know.

Thanks,
Paul
