I have skype working fine with my mono bluetooth earpiece, moto 550, but I can't get it working correctly with my iogear stereo headset.

I get audio, but the other person/skype test call cannot hear me. However, I can hear myself echo when I talk.

pcm.bluetoothstereo {
type bluetooth

     device 00:18:E4:0C:4D:17 #headset

profile "auto"
}

I do notice I have to remove "profile" line to get it working at all with skype.

Here's the entry for my WORKING h550
pcm.bluetoothh550 {
type bluetooth
device 00:1A:0E:08:03:90 # h550
}

in either case, I choose sound in/out in skype as the device mentioned.

I also tried using profile voice, still no go:(

pcm.bluetoothstereo {
type bluetooth

     device 00:18:E4:0C:4D:17 #headset

profile "voice"
}
