Here in New York, many of the pros in the big orchestras (clarinets, at least) took beta blockers for their auditions--pretty mainstream now. Moreover, several of the woodwind profs at the conservatories either encourage their students to take beta blockers or even give them out. For what it's worth, I take them for auditions; have advanced with and without them (have not advanced with and without them as well). For me, it feels more as though I'm playing at home, in my living room, when I take beta blockers.
