Bluetooth Stereo Headsets with PPC-6700 WM6.1?

Hello all,
I upgraded my Sprint PPC-6700 to WM6.1 with all the bells and whistles and am loving it.
I decided to buy a stereo bluetooth headset figuring it would work just fine since I have WM6.1 (ROM: 3.61.00 WWE / EXT ROM: 2.06.303 WWE). I bought the BlueAnt x5i headset.
It paired up just fine. But the problem is the audio starts for a few seconds, then drops off. If I hit the volume up or down, it comes back for a few seconds, then drops off. I even tried turning off the "Audio Streaming" option for the headset, but that didn't help.
So I am not sure if the headset is broken, or if it just won't work?
Anybody have any stereo bluetooth headsets working on your PPC-6700 with WM6.1? If so, which ones work?
Thanks!
Sean

Is there a more conventional design known to work with the 6700? I have a large head nd can not wear the "behind the head" banded headphones like this. they are not long enough to reach ear to ear on me and stay in place.

This happens because of some A2DP issues with some ppc's. I have a motorola s9 and experienced this same problem when I initially paired it up. After some experimentation though I found out a way to alleviate this problem. The simplest way is to pair it up with your 6700 then when the music drops in and out, pause it, power off your bt stereo headset, power the bt stereo headset back on, then it should automatically reconnect and waaaa laa all of your audio issues should be solved. If that doesn't work you could edit the registry entry for you blue tooth and change the configuration for the stack to 142 and exit and soft reset your 6700 if u need more info pm me
