Thanks to the following articles:
http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/Bluetooth_headset
http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Bluetooth_mouse

I was able to set up a Plantronics Voyager 520 with my laptop. My .asoundrc file has this in it:
Quote:
pcm.bluetooth {
type bluetooth
device 00:19:7F:D8:40:00
}


And when I go to play any music using that device with mplayer the bluetooth device will beep like it usually does when it connects but I don't actaully hear anything.
Quote:
# mplayer -ao alsa:device=bluetooth some.mp3


dmesg keeps throwing these errors the whole time:

And they go on for quite a while.

Using bluez-4.66-r1 and kernel 2.6.34-r1.

Can you see your bluetooth device when running
Code:
alsamixer

? Perhaps it is muted?

Thanks for the response man. alsamixer shows my internal sound card when I do that. If I try and set the device with
Code:
# alsamixer -D bluetooth
it says the device 'bluetooth' doesn't exist. Maybe I did something wrong setting it up?
