In Skype's Audio/Video preferences you need to see the microphone and speaker source to the BlueTooth headset in order for Skype to use them. So CMD-` to open Skype preferences, click the 'Audio/Video' tab icon and then check your settings.
In my own Skype install you can see I have to set it to use my Plantronics .520 headset if I want to use that for input or output:
It has to do with the general settings of Skype. In Skype preferences, on the General tab, make sure the "Set my status to Away after 10 minutes of inactivity" is not checked. This worked for me.
