- Using bluetooth headphones with A2DP profile, I can hear sound in good 
quality, but in this case input (mic) doesn't available.
- If I switch to "HSP/HFP" profile, sound makes very ugly (like via broken 
telephone), but mic input appear and works fine.
+ I'm testing a Nokia BH-905i headset (see 
http://www.wissel.net/blog/d6plinks/SHWL-8AZGGF ) on Ubuntu 10.10. The 
Bluetooth module correctly identifies the headset and the both audio profiles 
"HSP/ HFP Telephony duplex" and "A2DP High Fidelity Playback". For music 
playback only A2DP is suitable (HSP/HFP sounds like listening to music played 
through an old telephone). A2DP does not have an INPUT mode, so use of the 
headset for VoiP isn't possible.
+ What would be needed is a separate selection to allow to select A2DP for 
output and HSP/HFP for input. Smartphones (a lot of them *nix based) phones do 
that (or they switch on the fly?).
  
- I not sure, but I think input mic should works good in both profiles.
+ Formal structure:
+ 1) Ubuntu 10.10
+ 2) Pulse-Audio 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu21.1
+ consisting og pluseaudio, pulseaudio-esound-compat, 
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth, pulseaudio-module-gconf, pulseaudio-module-x11, 
pulseaudio-utils
+ 3) Select high quality audio output and still use the Bluetooth microphone
+ 4) Had to choose: either high quality audio or "telephone quality" with 
microphone
+ 
+ I can change the profile without the Bluetooth connection dropping, but
+ that's ridiculous. E.g. listening to music, a call comes in. Then I
+ would need to switch the profile before answering. Please not that in
+ Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile it's done
+ automatically.
