After testing with the 8525 I've determined that VC is NOT "opening" the Bluetooth "circuit." With .9f and IDTransfer installed VC announces the call to the speaker, then, when I touch the answer button on the headset, I hear 3-4 seconds of announcement in the headset before the call is answered (what's up with that, BTW? I have to remember to wait until the announcement stops before I say "Hello!") More experimentation shows that audio from various sources - Windows Media, Beta Player, whatever - goes to the speaker until I MANUALLY "open" the Bluetooth audio "circuit" by pressing the button on the headset, whereupon the audio goes to the headset until the "circuit" times out, when it returns to the speaker.

Does anyone have any ideas how to make VC "open" the Bluetooth audio "circuit?"
