Bluetooth A2DP stereo on Asus Eee PC

Since I fixed my Dial-Up Network setup issues, I was quite happy with my Asus Eee PC 901 Bluetooth capabilities. It works with my BT mouse and tethers with my cellphone over BT as well.

The next I wanted to use my Plantronics Voyager 855 stereo headset, but quickly found out the required A2DP stereo profile is not supported by the standard AzureBT Bluetooth application, shipped with EeePC 901. There are instructions on the Net to make A2DP work with many Linux media players, like xine & mplayer, but those involve installing the BlueZ stack (like I explained in the other post) and configuring ALSA output for it.

I guess, I'll leave it for later to make it work, when I have more free time (is there such thing, as more free time?)...
