I actually used this just a few hours ago, worked fine.

I can click "pair" or "unpair" all day long without any seeming effect.

Again, just a few hours ago it was working -- and the headphones were listed in the settings GUI.

the headphones are PLT v5200 and are paired, complete with the bleep-bloop sound indicating the connection.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
