I was able to use my Motorola BT headset with Skype on Gutsy. When I was 
able to pair, Skype shows BT headset as an alsa/oss device and choosing 
it worked. My problem is pairing. The headset is not discovered 
consistently by the executable in System >> Preferences >> Bluetooth 
headset. When discovered, if I try to make it the active handset, it 
fails a couple of times and then shows up as unknown <bdaddr>. This did 
work for a couple of days for me before I started having this issue.
