Problem pairing headset

hmm... i would like to see hcidump first.  if you could please install 
comms/hcidump port and run it as root

# hcidump -w headset.dump

after you tried to pair headset and your pc, please terminate hcidump 
with ^c and send me the headset.dump file.

headset should have requested authentication and freebsd should reject 
it (because link key does not exist). are you running hcsecd(8)? do you 
have entry in your /etc/bluetooth/hcsecd.conf describing headset?

in the mean time you could try to use

# hccontrol -n ubt0hci write_authentication_enable 1

before connecting to the headset. the above command will force local 
device attached to the freebsd host to authenticate all baseband 
connections.

thanks,
max
