This application may not be supported anyway, but I wanted to try using Cisco's IP communicator through Crossover (I'm using Mint 14). I'm trying to set up a bluetooth headset to use with the softphone. The headset is discovered and set up in Mint, but it is not being seen by the softphone in Crossover. Is there something that needs to be done in order to allow audio devices to be seen by applications in Crossover?
It needs to be paired and connected as an audio device. CrossOver has no bluetooth support, so the Windows software can't set up the bluetooth connection. Once Linux is connected to the device and you can e.g. play music on it with a Linux music player, CrossOver should report the audio device to the Windows software just like any other audio device.
What if it doesn't (what if Wine can't see bluetooth devices even though they can communicate with linux packages)?
I'm sorry for the thread hijack but I have a similar problem. No bluetooth audio. In my case the native linux programs can communicate with my bluetooth headset just fine. It's only wine programs that don't see it.
My suggestion would be to use the Pulseaudio setup tools (either gnome / kde specific, or simply pavucontrol) to select the input device for the Wine process. It's not an ideal solution, but it should work.
