How do I get the bluetooth device listed for sound settings:
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.
