    Dell Bluetooth headphones turns off as soon as I connect them

    I recently bought a Dell BH200 Headset with bluetooth to use with my XPS M1330. I turn it on and it gets recognized without problem but the headphones stay on for less than 10 seconds after getting the connection and then they turn off.
    I tried with my wife's Dell Inspiron (running Windows 7) and they work ok so I think I'm having trouble on the Ubuntu side.
    Any ideas how can I fix it?

    TIA,

    Ok, turns out it works ok as Audio Sink but it turns off when selected as Headset Service. Too bad I need it with Ekiga too.
    If some folk knows a workaround, I'll appreciate it.

    Did you ever get this to work? I'm having the same issue and haven't been able to correct it yet.
