I have searched all over the place and can't figure out how to do this. I
have a bluetooth headset connected to twinkle softphone. There are
commands available to send to twinkle, but with the new bluez drivers
(without btsco) I don't know how to get the button event. Can anyone help
me?
Thanks,
David

hello,
After further work on this, I find that it's not working exactly right.
The python code above gets the signal correctly, but that doesn't help
when you are trying to answer a call. Terminating a call works fine,
because you are connected, but when a call is ringing in, there is no
connection so the signal event never is called. Anyone know of a way to
make this work?
Thank you,
Dave
