Bluetooth Headset on PS3 and Battlefield: Bad Company Not Working?

OK. So here's the deal. I just grabbed my mum's bluetooth headset for her phone while she was at work, (a Samsung wep-501) I paired it with my PS3 and set it all up. I then went into the audio device settings menu and checked that that was all working (the menu where you can hear yourself speaking and has the volume controls etc.) and when i talk into the headset it recognizes that I'm talking (I can hear myself through the headset and it shows the bar moving with my voice.)

BUT... When I go and play Battlefield: Bad Company online, I can't talk through it. I can hear others talking through the earpiece so it can't just be a temporary server problem and it can't be my headset.

I then thought the game might be cutting it off when I started it. So I went to the XMB again, while I was playing online, and went into the settings and sure enough it still worked fine.

I have tried every map on several occasions and have no luck for any of them.

There are no other active bluetooth devices within range except of course my Dualshock 3 controller.

The headset IS fully charged.

I have not tried any other games as of this moment.

Please don't tell me I need to get a new headset unless you are absolutely sure it is necessary.

Any help would be much appreciated.
