Thanks a lot for this configuration. I got Skype running with it, even though 
it's freezing almost always when I call the echo test service (and both input 
and output are set to headset-sco-resample). But in a few cases it actually 
worked very nicely.

However, if only input _or_ output is set to the headset device, it's quite 
stable. So recording is fine, playback is fine, but both of them at a time 
freeze Skype.

For reference, this is my .asoundrc:

pcm.headset-sco-resample {
        type plug
        slave {
                pcm "headset-sco"
                rate 8000
                format S16_LE
                channels 1
        }
}
pcm.headset-sco {
        @args [BDADDR TIMEOUT]
        @args.BDADDR {
                type string
                default "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" # Put your HS address here
        }
        @args.TIMEOUT {
                type integer
                default 6000
        }
        type        sco
        bdaddr      $BDADDR
        timeout     $TIMEOUT
}

Might be some problem with ALSA, though.

Regards,
