I believe things are connected as I see this in dmesg after pressing the "track skip" button: input: 00:1B:66:00:31:88 as /devices/virtual/input/input11 mplayer -ao alsa:device=bluetooth /mnt/sda1/Music/f00/aayw.mp3 Starting playback... [press track skip] No bind found for key ''. Could anybody point me to a resource that explains how to manually "bind" the headphone controls to xmms, mplayer, rhythmbox, etc since I don't particularly want to use pulse audio Thanks John -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
