ROMs With Working Headset Buttons

I've flashed pretty much every ROM in the development thread and only CM7 w/ the included kernel allows me to use my Skullcandy 50/50's headset buttons. I've used a headset button app from the market that allows you to see the incoming button presses and it only shows them using CM7. Every other ROM doesn't recognize any presses. I've also flashed Tiamat and some other kernels on CM7 and that causes the buttons not to work. Looking for any ideas about why this happens. I like CM7 but other ROMs are prettier but headset buttons are a must. Any help is appreciated.

My advice is to use a stock HTC headset I love mine and it works for every ROM I use, them skull candy headphones are nice, but they tore my boys g2 up because of the size difference in the headphone jack

Where'd you get your set? I looked online for HTC branded headsets with controls and could only find one with a micro usb plug, which I don't want to mess with.

I actually use the optional headphones that were offered for my HTC TP2. Very nice, it has rubber ear inserts, auto answer/hang up on the cord, and a very long cord. You can get them on Ebay pretty cheap now.

Do they have track control? My main concern is not having to pull my phone out of my pocket when biking to skip songs. Thanks for the suggestion.
