you might actually have to re-design your driver then. Since essentially
you need to ensure that events like HCI_Conn_Complete arrive in the
proper order to make sure that ACL and SCO handles are properly
available before ACL or SCO packets are send.
This has been always the problem. Especially with USB endpoints where
SCO packets and ACL packets are on different endpoints. Getting the
order right is pretty tricky.
In addition you have the completed packet events that need to be handled
properly. Otherwise you might screw up the flow control.
