    Are you connecting stereo headphones or a headset meant for making calls?

    The Treo behaves differently when stereo headphones or a headset are connected. That's because it automatically detects what's connected and assumes that a headset is only used for making a call. If you're using a headset with an answer/hang up button, you'll notice that when you press it in you're able to hear the music.

    I believe you can get around this with software, but I haven't tried it myself.

    The other intended option is to 2.5mm stereo headphones, hybrid headset (headset and stereo headphones in one), or an adapter and standard 3.5mm headphones.

    If you go to your local circuit city or staples or wherever you should be able to find a headset that will not only connect like a regular pair of headphones but also work as a regular cell phone headset. I know for a fact that they have them at the Verizon store in circuit city because I had one in my hand. They are about $30.00 or so. No dongle adapter needed.
