Ah the classic: How do I improve quality in an org 'without any regard for quality'? :)
But assuming that everyone cares about quality (I know, a big leap), what has worked for me is: tagging stories as bugs/regressions/customer-found-this and reporting on time spent. If you're spending too much time fixing bugs, then you need to do something about it. New bugs in newly written code are faster to fix, so you should be able to show that bug bashes make that number going down quarter over quarter which contributes to velocity going up.
Alternately (and not scrum specific) I've had success connecting a CSM/support liaison to every team. Doesn't give you a full bug bash, but even one outside person click testing for 20m here and there gets you much of the benefit (and their incentives align more closely with QA).
