I have a Motorola V600 phone with BT and a BT dongle using the widcomm 1.3 drivers. What I want to do is use my PC as a 'headset' for my cell phone. The drivers support this profile (audio gateway) and my cell phone sees the PC as a headset and will connect to it as such. But I get no audio going either way. The cell phone goes silent as if it is sending all its audio to the 'headset' but nothing comes out of my speakers and the mic doesn't seem to work either. Do I need another program that uses the audio gateway profile or am I just missing something?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Not really. Have you checked the Sound applet in the Control Panel? After connecting a Bluetooth device as headset it should change, but in this case it's the other way around, so it should remain as your current soundcard.

Yes, I have checked it. There is a new device, "Bluetooth Audio" in addition to my normal sound card (AC97) and I have even tried switching to that but still nothing. Nothing seems to be muted, I just don't get any sound. Has anyone here actually done this? I have found several other forums with posts asking about it but I have yet to see someone come up with a solution or say how or if they ever got it to work.
