I primarily use JFW also. I had a version that did work, just have to choose
the classic mode or skin when installing. We used it once or twice on
Blindadrenaline cardroom meetings, and it worked OK for talking. As for the
text chat, I don't know how well that goes as one might need scripts to get
automatic speech.

Thank you. I may give the Team Talk thing a try next time the NVDA folks
will have a conference there. My main screen reader is JAWS.

That's what I did with my Plantronics wired USB I was using. If one wanted
stereo, I think the only way right now I know of is to use a stereo
channel
on a team talk server, and then you can use stereo sources in your chat.

Thank you. So what I have done here is set my Skype audio settings to
Skullcandy for the microphone
Skullcandy for the call volume
Skype ringer to ring from my internal sound card
All checkboxes are unchecked.
So when someone calls I will hear the Skype ring through my computer's
speakres.
I press alt+page up keyboard keys to answer the Skype call.
This eliminates having to wear the Skullcandy headset all the time
I was told the voice audio via Skype is mono and not stereo.
Works well for my needs and situation.
I did write to Skullcandy and asked them if they can add a answer call
button on the headset in a future model.

I think that's probably how most of them are, even if you used Bluetooth,
because there isn't a way I know of to set the underlying hotkey the
button
sends.

Tested with another blind user with Skype this headset. He gave it a
rating
of B. One thing you need to know is this headset does not have a button
to
answer Skype calls receive. You have to answer the call via your
keyboard.
