Yes, I tried that, as I mentioned previously. Nothing happened. > Or install bluez-gnome > I got bluez-gnome installed and lo and behold...pairing worked. It looks like bluez doesn't support the default pin any more and requires a (dbus?) listener to do the pin entry, meaning that bluez-gnome works but nothing else does. > > > I've also tried to run vlc and got timeouts.

I've also gotten mpg321 piped to aplay [2] to work, however this isn't a great solution. mpd refuses to play through a2dpd despite all of my attempts to make it work. It looks like mpd simply doesn't do alsa well...I'm trying to debug it with the mpd developers. Aside from that I found the sound quality horrible.... Playing on my MacBook Pro [1] with some utulities which I think are derived from older code from this project, the sound quality is pretty good but when I used mpg321 and aplay on my Zaurus (arm) with a2dpd the sound was very crunchy for lack of a better word. Cymbals especially were very nasty sounding.
