Help getting Plugz going

Gidday.

I am trying to get a JABRA BT135 working on my mums laptop
with limited  
success.

Currently the older btsco way is 1/2 working, with mic
working, poor  
quality, but working.
  The 'speaker' bit ... reciving audio is not working, as in
theres no  
sound just a faint hiss, that starts and stops when the
audio starts and  
stops, with beeps from the headest at appropriate times to
indicate that  
it was recieving audio.
  btsco was run and compiled as per the Download and build
instructions.

Due to the poor recording quality and the lack of playback,
i figured that  
plugz would be the way to go.

I googled as much as i could for a more comprehensive howto
on install ing  
and running Plugz, but only returned howtos for the btsco
method,
Hence I am asking for help as to how to setup Plugz for an
almost idiot.

What I tried:
  almost built from source, until i saw that debian has a
bluetooth-alsa  
package (Debian Unstable)
copied .asoundrc to the home and root directories, ran
headsetd -n
then tried to connect to the headset via various methods.
Sorry dont have  
the box on hand, so i cant say what exact command i used to
try and  
connect to the headset, but none of them produced any output
from  
headsetd, and none produced any audio in te headset.

I wasnt sure whether or not I was to put the mac address of
the headset in  
the asoundrc file or not, and if so where. it looked like
these things  
were inherited from environmental variables.

so major concerns: what to do with asoundrc, how to run
headsetd, and  
connect to headset.

The bluetooth adaptor is a D-Link cf card in a pcmcia
converter, it is the  
HCI type (CSR) .. sorry all from crappy memory)

TIA

it sounds like you didn't see this one

http
://bluetooth-alsa.sourceforge.net/build.html

also, the sco flowcontrol patch should be applied even if
you are using 
the btsco method.
