Well, there are a few things behind the scene: - ALSA developers have no BT hardware, thus there is no development in this area - snd-bt-sco is a wrong implementation it just creates a bridge to a user daemon - 2.6.14 kernel is too old for debugging and no worth unless someone gets a support contract > What is the state of bluetooth audio development?
