I do it all the time. > For any support from you I would thank you. I use GNOME and PulseAudio. It just works. You go to Bluetooth Settings, add a new device, detect the headset, do the pairing and that's it. You can dynamically change from the headset to the built in sound card (or cards), or set individual programs to work with the headset (like Skype, for example). I'm using GNOME 3.0 and PulseAudio 1.0, but it worked like this since GNOME 2.2x.
