The USB piece is Bluetooth 4.0, but the headphones (Sentry BT300), I
don't believe are 4.0. Curious as of any headphones must be (more or
less) recent and high-end for the mic to work.
I have the PCLinuxOS TDE Mini image installed and although ofono is in
their repo, it is not currently installed.
I'll install ofono and see what occurs.
May have answered my own question. There is a
second BT profile
named HSP/HFP (Headset Head Unit). Says it's unavailable.
if you want to try my work there is tdebluez in the repo waiting to
go into mainline.
if profile is available (it means you have the software installed) it
would show up.
The HFP/HSP comes with ofono if I am not completely wrong.
I even came so far to use the phone remotely from the PC (using dbus
direct calls for now - no time to write UI). Unfortunately there
seems to be an issue somewhere down the pipe because PA crashes often
when call is finished and in term kmix goes crazy 100% cpu.
