Bluetooth Battery Drain?

I'm rooted with EB13 and Baked Snack 2.3. It's been great, but I notice when I turn the Bluetooth on the battery drains a lot quicker, even when paired and not talking. I never had this problem before. When I used my Bluetooth headset and wasn't talking, the battery drain was almost negligible. I know the Bluetooth is causing the drain because when I check out Spare Parts, the phone is never sleeping. But as soon as I turn it off, the phone starts to sleep again.

Is there an issue with Bluetooth and 2.2? Or even an issue with the Rom itself? I checked the Baked Snack forums and nobody seems to mention this. I might as well let the developer know.

Anyone else had this issue? And if so, is there a fix around it?

I'm using a Jawbone Icon, if that matters. Thanks.
 
Probably best to try with different ROM to trouble shoot. Never experienced this particular problem myself, but I don't use bluetooth all that much.
 
corinthians, I have noticed my battery lasts a lot more since I have not been using bluetooth (It was only on when in my car). I stopped when the sound on the Epic drops to where youbarely hear it, when using bt on EB13 and EC05 (rebooting the phone clears the condition). At the 12 hour mark yesterday, I was still at 60%. When I had been using bt, it would be at 20% by that time.
