I figured there was an incompatibility and I should move on.
Upon further testing, I noticed something interesting. If I initiate a phone call and THEN plug in the headphones, the Bold will recognize the headphones, and the headphones (including the mic) will work (though the volume control won't). If I then switch to the music app, the headphones will work with the music app. But if I unplug the headphones and then plug them back in, the Bold won't recognize them, and I have to initiate the phone call process again.
Blackberry-supplied headphones work fine; I just don't like them.
Sort of odd. Smells like a bug to me. Any thoughts/explanations?
Thanks in advance.
Happy new year.

I use the Shure iPhone "cable" with a microphone and a socket for your headphones - and have similiar issues. Occassionally I can't get the music player to recognise the headphones.
