Hi,

I've been trying some things and just uploaded an *a2dpd2* plugin.
Tested the plugin with =

aplay,xmms,amarok,vlc,mocp,kaffeine,mplayer,beep-media-player.
This gave good sound on all except mplayer :( but at least the movie =

speed is now correct. This may be worth a try on another computer.
Not had time to try any gst based player.

reports appreciated.

PS: Note the type plug/slave.pcm trick is not well supported by =

vlc,mocp,bmp. I used alsa-libs 1.0.13 but this should not be required.
