With the amount of experimentation I've done in the past couple of days 
it's hard to figure out what information is relevant. I'll try to boil 
it down:

I couldn't get btsco to work, though a2play did.

With pcm_a2dpd I get occasional (~one every two minutes) chirps out of 
the headphones, mainly when interrupting ogg123 (aplay, whatever). 
hcidump -X -V shows no traffic except briefly when those chirps occur. 
Sound is fine through the alsa redirect.

With pcm_a2dpd2 I have jumpy, very sped up sound from the headphones and 
plenty of traffic through hcidump. Alsa redirect sounds about the same 
as the headphones, but the daemon gives the following errors:

A2DPD[21:11:15.563]: alsa_transfer_raw: (errno=32:Broken pipe)EPIPE(-32)
A2DPD[21:11:15.983]: append_to_ring_buffer: Ring buffer is full
A2DPD[21:11:15.983]: append_to_ring_buffer: Ring buffer is full
A2DPD[21:11:15.986]: append_to_ring_buffer: Ring buffer is full

and on, filling the screen with the full buffer messages.


I suppose that basically describes the situation. The rest is 
background. I'm willing to do whatever I can to help, but as my C is 
rusty I figure it's time to ask the devs.

Background:
I followed the build instructions and troubleshooting for Plugz at 
bluetooth-alsa.sf.net. Everything went without a hitch as far as I can see.

I have a pair of Creative CB2530 headphones. I've tried them with four 
different bluetooth dongles including both Broadcom and CSR (currently a 
DLink DBT-120). There were no differences between dongles. Connecting is 
never problematic at all.

This is Gentoo with Bluez 3.9 and kernel 2.6.20 with the sco patches.
