[Bluez-users] Bluetooth headphone profile?

[Bluez-users] Bluetooth headphone profile?

[serguei]

Hi, everybody!
Does anyone has an experience in setting bluetooth headphones in linux? I 
browsed a lot of sites but, alas, found no info on headphones... ;-(
I own EPoX BT-HS01 and was able to make it recognised by my vaio Z1XSP

[root@istra dev]# l2ping 00:0D:FD:00:FB:70
Ping: 00:0D:FD:00:FB:70 from 08:00:46:CA:78:7B (data size 20) ...
44 bytes from 00:0D:FD:00:FB:70 id 200 time 48.87ms
44 bytes from 00:0D:FD:00:FB:70 id 201 time 27.28ms
44 bytes from 00:0D:FD:00:FB:70 id 202 time 33.28ms

But what to do next? How to switch to headphone profile so to make audio 
transfered to the headphone and to get its mic input in?
The idea is to use the headphone with IP telephony such as www.skype.com - 
highly recommended!

Thanks in advance!

Sergei,

Several people have worked on this over time. Right now the most updated 
patches are at http://sourceforge.net/projects/bluetooth-alsa/ (see cvs 
projects "kernel" and "btsco")

There's a lot of work to be done on it to make it more solid.

I have used it with kphone to do voip. The user experience isn't as 
straightforward as it should be, but it is a good proof of concept.
