Well, I finally had time/money to get a better bluetooth dongle, a
bluespoon (CSR) 2.0/EDR.  My old one's lack of adaptive frequency
hopping limited my range quite a lot compared to what i was able to
get with my BT 1.2 phone. The new dongle improves that immensely.
Also: current plugz cvs works perfectly well, no skipping/weird audio
pitch/dropouts when using mplayer to play back mp3 files. I am still
getting no sound when using a2dpd as a plugin for xmms.

One thing of note, I am no longer able to run a2dpd as a user, and im
wondering what I need to change... i know i got it working once, but
now i get:

A2DPD[21:23:25.748]: a2dp_make_listen_socket: (errno=13:Permission
denied)Cannot bind socket 6 for psm 25

Other than these problems, it works fine when i run a2dpd as root.
