Help Bluetooth insanity

Have a Wildfire S for my wife. Because her vision is poor, am trying to get it as accessible as possible. Have downloaded VLingo. But just cannot get it to work via a Bluetooth Handsfree (Nokia 36 or Jabra BT150). Headsets are working in long tap mode (last number redial) and you can use for a phone call. But when it comes to using Vlingo, there is no sound at the headset.

PLEASE do not tell me this is a headset issue. My Windows Phone (HTC Trophy) works perfectly with BT. Short tap wakes up phone, you can hear the phone prompts in headset, and it will text, dial, do whatever you want. So it is NOT a headset issue. It's either an Android issue, or a Wildfire issue.

The end goal is that my wife just wears the BT earpiece, keeps phone in pocket, and does everything through voice.
