flash sound no go with bluetooth headphones

[Joel Schopp]

In 11.04 my bluetooth headphones worked. In 11.10 they don't. They connect and show up as an output device in the sound settings panel. But no music. Even the hardware test works, I hear the lady talk in each ear. Thinkpad w520, more relevant info below.

Turns out banshee and vlc work fine. Flash in firefox (ie Pandora Radio) don't work however. They still only play in the built in speakers and not in the bluetooth headphones. Weird.
