Hi all,

Some recent patches have made that the State property in 
HandsfreeGateway exposes if the SCO connection is active or not. As far 
as I understand, the state Playing is specifically added for this reason.

However, I don't see any way in the D-Bus API to control the state of 
this connection. One example would be that a phone would drop the audio 
connection (it is allowed to do so at any time) but the user wants this 
connection to be re-established.

Wouldn't this require the addition of some methods like ConnectAudio and 
DisconnectAudio in the HandsfreeGateway interface?

Regards,
Mikel
