Hello,

I have a bluetooth headset which I can use perfectly well with my Android
devices, but can't make it work with KDE.
The KDE bluetooth application sees the headset, pears and connects to it, but
the sound is still sent to the speakers even when the headset is connected. No
sound is heard through the headset, only through the speakers.
KMix and SystemSettings does not seem to have any option to direct the sound
to the headset.
When I connect a wired headset, it is automatically used by the system (and
the speakers are automatically turned off).
How do I make KDE use the bluetooth headset?

Thanks,

If you system have pulseaudio installed and it support of bluez, you can use kmix hidden functionality: you can click on kmix icon, open mixer (i don't know how it is in English), open playback tab (not a playback devices) and .......... right click on stream you want to play using bluetooth... You also can set in KDE sound settings (phonon settings) priority of devices. If you set bluetooth headset first then the sound will go to bluetooth automatically when it is connected.

For example, some images:

1. kmix can show available devices (and bluetooth too): http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/25/kmix_devices.png 2. you can switch devices for each streams: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/25/kmix_streams.png 3. you can change devices priorities in phonon settings: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/25/kmix_priorities.png 4. you can set bluetooth profile: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/25/bluetooth_set.png
