Bluetooth headset not able to make calls

I've installed this ice cream sandwich rom - [ROM][ICS][20/03][FIRSTAOKP/MTP]HyDrOG3N-ICS 20.03[NOW WITH MTP!!][SOURCEWORK][Up'ed] - xda-developers.

When somebody calls me when my phone is connected to a Bluetooth headset, it works fine, but when I press the button when not in a call, nothing happens even when I have apps like vlingo installed which listen for voice commands.

Is there some obscure setting that I'm missing or is this likely to be a limitation of the rom?

To clarify: with the sgs2 default firmware, when I pressed the call button on my Bluetooth headset it would open up vlingo and listen for voice commands. I'd like this functionality with the new rom, but maybe to use google voice search rather than vlingo!

Any ideas guys?

Thanks a lot :)
