As i understood, this is no bug:
The usb-specs say, that charging-cabels have to have a resistens between pin 2 and 3 of max. (i dont now, 100 Ohm or so). So one way to do so is just connect pin 2 and 3 (shortcircuit = 0 Ohm). Sony stays with this specification . So carchargers wont work, when u take a normal datacable, unless they are shortcuircuied itself.
(Sorry for my bad english)

mine started to work now too as of the 2.1 update. This is great. Now I can stream bluetooth music to my deck without killing my battery
