Just wanted to confirm that the plain old wired headset model I purchased (Road King model RKING910) does indeed work!
The sound out of the ear piece is a little "tinny" but it is loud enough (some other headsets I used were not). Also this is a very cheap headset, available in any truck stop in USA. People I talk to say I sound great though, and they can hear little or no background noise from my end.
Very happy to be able to finally be using a real GNU/Linux phone while driving[0]! And I will continue to tinker with bluetooth stuff when I have time, as ultimately wireless would be ideal. Thanks to everyone for clues to investigate in that area going forward.
[0] For anyone who may be unaware, holding a phone in your hand is now illegal in almost every state in USA.
