I bought a set of bluetooth speakers (LG MSB-100) and paired them to
my XV6900. They worked fine - until a call came in. The call
switched to the speakers as designed, no problem. When the call
ended, though, the music played on the phone. Nothing I could do
could send the music back to the speakers, except turning off
bluetooth at my phone, powering down the speakers (had to turn
bluetooth off because the speaker power button kept wanting to make my
phone redial the last call!), powering up and repairing.

Quite the hassle for "hands free" music, no? Any recommendations on
how to find the solution to this?

I've seen problems like that a lot and there is a shorter way to fix that
particular problem.

After you cycle the bluetooth on your phone go to the screen with the list
of "Devices" and Tap and Hold the device you were using before the phone
call. When a menu pops up tap on "Set as Wireless Stereo". That should fix
it right there under normal conditions so you shouldn't have to cycle power
on your bluetooth speakers.

Sometimes the bluetooth will just shut off on a phone with WM6 or WM6.1 and
I always cycle power on the phone after that happens then I do that Tap and
Hold bit mentioned above.

BTW I have a computer that is always on that has a bluetooth adapter on it
and speakers. All I have to do to redirect the sound from my phone to the
speakers on that computer is use that "Set as Wireless Stereo" trick
mentioned above.

As for the question in the subject of your post. There is a newsgroup just
for cellular.bluetooth but about all I've seen posted on it is SPAM.

The other thing is to dig out the bluetooth version for your phone and
post it... look in the bt manager "about"

among other things, different versions support different connections and
features... I have a relatively early wacom ppc version (1.6.0) that
exhibits the same symptoms and I have been unable to address them other
than to soft reset when they occur.

>> Where to go for bluetooth issues? <<

to answer this, essentially nowhere, as wacom and other bt device driver
providers refuse to even acknowledge that they have end users... there
are normally zero driver update options.

The only remaining logical place to go is the oem or the vendor and they
beg off with "they are not our drivers"

Before the tablet makers start picking on you, that is Widcomm, not Wacom!
