I have a Jabra Clipper Bluetooth headset which up until today has been working fine with my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad T420s running Windows 7).
The problem is that the audio now seems to have stopped working. I can see that the audio is playing (e.g. if I look in the volume slider I can see that the levels are going up and down as expected), and the headset is paired and connected fine. The Bluetooth headset is set as the default one in the Sounds menu in control panel. I think the mic on the headset is working as the levels go up and down if I do a test on a VoIP application (e.g. Lync).
It must be some setting somewhere that I have disabled – but I have no idea what it is. Does anyone have any ideas?

I have Windows 7 laptops and two Sony Bluetooth audio devices: MRD-NWBT10 and SBH50. I have managed to make both work automatically such that when the Bluetooth device is OFF the audio comes from the laptop speakers, and when the Bluetooth device in ON the sound comes from the Bluetooth device (so far).
Two things I had to play with:
1.
2.
I have no idea why I did not find this information anywhere else on the web. Number one (#1) 1 would have saved me a lot of poking and searching. But I am pleased now. And if the information does not work for you then at least you have more info as to what does NOT work.
AND if I had not been able to post here as a guest I would not have posted.
