Ah. I see now. Well, I turned it on and off before starting my btsco
deamon, and the `hcitool afh ...` output didn't change, so I think
*something* is broken. Whether it's my headset, the BT dongle, or bluez, I
don't know. But it doesn't seem to be doing AFH properly.

Marcel, have you personally tested AFH with a DBT 120 dongle, upgraded
to the 1.2 firmware? What remote device did you test it with?

Thanks!
