Simon Even without avrcp, a combo headset should pause the a2dp stream when taking a voice call. The underlying avdtp protocol has messages for stream suspend. btw, the a2dpd and bluetooth-alsa stuff is an experiment. If you can afford to upgrade bluez-utils, you'll find a new audio service there that is the one being worked on. This may be a little too bleeding edge since it will require a new bluez-libs and might impact some other stuff. I haven't heard these HSP/HFP/A2DP headsets being called "multipoint" before but I've been calling them "combo" sets. The interesting thing here is the set prefers to be master on both its active connections so it can communicate with separate hifi and voice devices in a single piconet.
