According to this email in the bluez-utils mailing list the is a know problem with 2.6.24 kernels and there is a patch to fix the broken eSCO support for bluetooth 1.2 headsets.

I have not tried this patch as i'm not sure of the process of building a new deb with this patch included.
I am running hardy amd64 if someone wants to build a kernel or module for me to try...

I have two usb bluetooth adaptors and two headsets. I know one adaptor supports v2.0+EDR, the other is builtin to the laptop. I get the same errors with both adaptors and headsets.
