Bluetooth headset..

Hey there #!3rz. I've got a new riddle here - a bluetooth headset. Pairing it with laptop was no problem, however alsa doesn't lists it as an audio device, so I cannot really use it ( Skype lists bluetooth, but changing to it doesn't really change anything.. There's a talk that pulseaudio is the only solution, but installing pulse doesn't really excite me. I've added some lines to asound.conf: pcm.bluetooth {
       type bluetooth
       device 00:11:67:09:4D:58
}

Still nothing... Any help?

Re: Bluetooth headset..

No idea at this point, but it would be helpful to include a few more details about your CrunchBang Statler/Stable installation.  Vanilla or Backports?  What model of bluetooth card?  What model headset?

Please post

uname -r
lspci -knn

within code tags.  Hopefully somebody else here will know the right code to get details about the bluetooth headset.

Since you didn't say anything about a dongle or USB, I'm assuming you have an internal bluetooth adapter.  If the adapter is, in fact, USB, please also post

Re: Bluetooth headset..

First of all, OS is statler, not BPO with 2.6.32-5-amd64. My laptop doesn't have built in bluetooth, so I used generic usb dongle
