I have a PPC-6601 with the same issue. The platform apparently does not support "audio on demand" over bluetooth. There may be 3rd party software or a bluetooth stack tweak that fixes this but as of yet I have not found one. If it exists it is probably on this site, but I'm still searching.
Hopefully someone will post a fix.

This also causes voicecommand to not work over the bluetooth, which means that a wired headset is far superior to a bluetooth one on these phones. Hopefully it is not a hardware limitation.

good luck to us.

Its not a limitation... but the device should support AD2P profile... which is not still in there.. will will have to wait for it

Hey guys,
check out PDA2K_BroadcomCorp_BTUpdate.cab on this forum:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14329

I believe this adds the AD2P and keyboard profiles to the phone. When I installed it on mine I saw a new profile for bluetooth high quality audio headphones. Unfortunately my bluetooth headset (Logitech mobile freedom) doesn't seem to support AD2P. I was hoping to get low quality audio on demand through the headset, not necessarily high quality audio. My goal is to get microsoft voice command to work over the bluetooth headset speaker and mic.

Let me know if you have any ideas for getting audio on demand over my bluetooth headset, and if you have a good set of bluetooth headphones that support AD2P, the file at the link above should get it working if you have the broadcomm/widcomm bluetooth stack.

that file should work on any pda using the broadcomm bluetooth stack. it adds the high quality audio profile and keyboard profile.

i am looking for a way to get a headset profile to behave exactly like a wired headset. apparently this is not an option.
