Me and my co-worker just bought a bluetooth headset (jabra) for our work. We are both using linux. I am on Ubuntu 12.10.
My BT headset works just fine on both HSP w/ microphone or AD2P for music. However, it is not efficient to answer the phone.
I have to switch the audio profile to HSP in order to have the microĥone working...Not very good when phone rings to go through many clicks prior to answer the phone (switching to HSP)... I, and my co-worker too are very interested in such a feature like my android phone does. (automatic switch). or at least, a shortcut on keyboard or top bar...whatever would make it easier...

One other thing; most of the BT audio adapters have 1-2 control button to start/stop and/or volume control. On android, it controls
the music playing...or switch to answering the phone when it rings...Is it possible to have such feature for the default music program? like rhythmbox or clementine?

If someone has a solution for me, altough it may be a work around, I'd lie to know about it.
I am opened to anything...!

best regards.
keep up with the good work guys.
