Jeff You may have seen in the discussion with Jim that a2dpd is not being maintained. The audio service in bluez-utils is taking its place and works pretty well now. You can improve audio delivery in many cases with hcid.conf changes. If you have "master" in hcid.conf's lm setting and you take "rswitch" and "sniff" out of the lp setting, you are making the pc prefer to be master and to hopefully behave better. This can eliminate choppiness. The ideal setup would be to use pulse to switch from wired to wireless audio on the fly. I'm not sure it will work currently. I'll be trying again with pulse 0.9.7. Brad
