Currently there is no support for multiple headset because of missing 
arguments. It was an open question how it should be done.
I do not realy like the idee of d-bus for this task. From my point of 
view btsco should be an smal daemon that run with low resources.
This special mean that he should not require an extream set of librarys 
for tasks that can be done faster simpler and easer to read without the 
libs.
1. ALSA till i used btsco i never needed to install libasound to get the 
sound running under linux.
2. The configure script link without check against libptread wich is 
aktuall not used on asound on my system
3. The btsco can be writen with less lines and less memory usage without 
asound/pthread
4. Even the bluetooth stuff is not realy needed but leas overloaded in 
my eyes.

This would make it to what it is an small deamon with no dependecies out 
of the kernel. This is ideal for embeded system.

There is no audio processor in the btsco daemon.

If  there is an support i will build it in.
