    Hello, i have an aspire 5670 with built in bluetooth. However, i believe it only has a range of about 9 feet. So, i bought a usb blue tooth dongle with a range of up to 33'. the computer recognizes the dongle, and the dongle recognizes my headset, as in they are able to pair, but when i use a program like skype i am unable to hear anything with my headset. But if i enable my built in blue tooth i can use my headset. Is there a conflict? do programs not recognize the secondary usb bluetooth? any help would be great.
