You know, I was gonna say "But I had A2DP working JUST FINE with bluez-alsa, and JACK knows about anything that ALSA knows about!"... and then I started digging around and learned that bluez-alsa hasn't worked since BlueZ 4.x. :/ [0]
Guess I have another project in my queue. :P Hope I can get it in-tree without too much hassle.
[0] I guess that tells me how long it has been since I've paired a Bluetooth headset with my laptop! ;)

Oh, by in-tree, I mean "In the Gentoo Portage package tree.". Getting the work merged into Bluez proper would be nice, but I really don't care about that. :)
