Continued SCO audio issues...

I posted a while back about having some issues getting SCO audio to work
on some Compulab em-x270 boards. Well, we're still not there, but we've
tried a lot more things. I'm going to describe the problem in some more
detail now in the hopes that somebody here can help point me in a
direction to get this working.
Symptoms:
- Everything involved (bt headset, ALSA, aplay/mplayer/pulseaudio,
etc) seems to think everything is working.
- No sound comes out of the headset. We hear a hissing from the
headset during actual audio playback (or when I have pulseaudio talking
to it via 'module-alsa-sink' and the sink is not suspended).
Config(s) Tested:
- Kernels: 2.6.23, 2.6.26, 2.6.27
- Bluez: 3.26, 3.36, 4.12, 4.18
- ALSA drivers: as shipped w/ kernels above
We've been through about every possible combination of the above. We've
tried hci_usb and btusb. We've tested with 3 models of bt headset and 2
development boards. For some reason, the ONLY place I can make SCO audio
work is under a stock Ubuntu 8.10 (which uses Bluez 4.12, kernel 2.6.27,
and ALSA 1.0.17 for the record).
I'm stumped. Here is some sample output from various pieces as we try to
play a file. Right now we're using Bluez 3.36 (getting 4.x running on
this platform was a bit of a PITA and was somewhat unstable so we backed
out to what currently ships with openembedded)
We've tried with separate USB dongles (using the same chipset, that
works under Ubuntu 8.10) so it's not the onboard BT chipset...

Pertinent output of "hcid -n -d" (this is what happens when I actually
try to play audio with "aplay -D bt -f S16_LE test.wav". Yes, the test
wavfile is 8Khz S16_LE PCM WAV audio):

I'm open to any suggestions. If more info is needed, tell me what you'd
like to see and I'll post it up.
Thanks in advance,
