It's easy: go to Skype preferences, select Sound Devices, and set "PulseAudio server (local)" for microphone, speakers and ringing. Now emerge media-sound/pavucontrol, and run pavucontrol. With Skype running (and in the middle of a test call, for example, so it uses the soundcard), in the Playback tab of pavucontrol select the BT headset for the Skype application. Done; this is how I did it in my laptop right now: https://plus.google.com/u/0/115256116066287398549/posts/JX6kRciZ9zA Regards. -- Canek Peláez Valdés Posgrado en Ciencia e Ingeniería de la Computación Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México
