I dunno where your googling led you but this blog entry seems to be 
pretty explanatory of what is needed:

BlueDevil, the new KDE bluetooth stack is here
http://www.afiestas.org/bluedevil-the-new-kde-bluetooth-stack-is-here/

Reading the "dependencies" part we can see:

- PulseAudio, or a proper configured Alsa (with the bluetooth hook)

By "alsa with bluetooth hook" I suppose it refers to package "bluez-alsa" 
instead its PA counterpart. Anyway, whether that combination works or not 
I can't tell (using GNOME here).
