I can change volume with my BH-214.

What player are you using? I noticed over in a thread on qtify that the developer was changing from using a helper library to using Pulse Audio directly (IIRC), and he said that the temporary drops in sound would be going away...

I've not been experiencing this problem, but I have a question: Is this related to usage as a phone? I am thinking that the BT stack may be switching over to using headset profile when you make/receieve a call, and not switch back.
