650 Ringing through handsfree earbud

Hey guys, I've got a Treo 650. Whenever the original handsfree is plugged in and the phone rings, it only plays the ringtone through the handsfree earbud. Most of the time I am unable to hear it making me miss the call. This is quite frustrating and was hoping if any of you guys know how to solve this problem?

Is it defaulted to play through the earbud? I am currently using the program Profile and Ringo. There are no options within these apps that allow me to make the ringtone play from the main phone speaker.

I believe that's "works as designed." It's like a stereo at home, when you plug in the headphones, the sound stops going through the speakers and only goes through the headphones.

I don't play the music loud at all. Its hard to hear the mp3 playing through the little ear pierce while its at a considerable distance from my ear, eg. sitting on the passenger seat. I don't drive around with the earpierce in my ear.
