Guest maplecustom Posted January 4, 2008 Report Posted January 4, 2008 I went and bought a bluetooth headset last night and, much to my dismay, discovered that I couldn't figure out how to push all audio through the headset. When I would initiate a call of course the headset would come to life, but as soon as I ended the call, all audio went back through the main speaker on the phone. I really, really want to be able to discreetly watch the Seahawks game tomorrow (from work) with slingbox, but I must get this figured out to get it to work. I'm not opposed to taking back the headset and buying another accessory if one will do what I need. Thanks for any help.

Not sure why your having this issue unless you are not using a stero BT headset. I watch movies and listen to my streaming XM radio through my headset with no problems.

Does it come with a mic to handle calls as well?
Guest thelostsoul Posted January 4, 2008 Report Posted January 4, 2008 Some come with a mic. But it's not going to work how you want unless its stereo. The single ones only connect as a headset. The stereo ones connect as headphones and all audio is output through them.

The stereo quality is good (not GREAT) and handling calls is okay. You need to be in a quiet enviornment for them to work GOOD.

I have this same problem also with my Jabra 8010 Stereo headset where I'll end a call with them on and then try to listen to music, and the music will revert back to the BJ2 speaker. I have to disconnect and reconnect the "stereo headset" manually on the phone in order to get the headphones to work again for music. Anyone have a fix for this? Thx.
