Bug: Speaker fails to resume working after Bluetooth a2dp disconnect
There seems to be a problem with getting sound back on to the built-in speaker after one turns off the bluetooth stereo headset.
Issue:
1. connect a bluetooth a2dp stereo headset
2. sound gets rerouted from the onboard speakers to the bluetooth headset
3. disconnect the bluetooth headset from the headset button on the headset
4. play media
5. no sound comes out of the onboard speaker
I have checked the bluetooth control panel, after disconnect, it correctly indicates that the headset has been disconnected and is only paired but not connected
i have also tried turning off the bluetooth radio all to together, and still no sound returns to the onboard speaker.
The only way to get sound to resume to the onboard speakers are by a full shutdown and restart.
any answers??
I too have the same but in my phone. However, a few additions to the above...if I listen to a voice mail and click the speaker icon, the external phone speaker does work. However, once I stop the voicemail playback it doesn't. I too have to do a hard shutdown and restart to get external speaker working.
I've gone through the options and settings and nothing works. I cannot turn on the external speaker.
In my case I have a BT connection to my car. I think this only happens after I get out of the car (having connected). I need to still determine if it happens when I don't make any calls using the BT.
Same issue here. Extremely frustrating. I love my new ('ish) phone but this bug is nearly a deal breaker. Samsung Epic on Sprint. Unrooted Froyo 2.2. Jawbone ERA headset.
Samsung - PLEASE fix this or I could find myself back in Blackberry world.
Great site, BTW!
Bump! Any update on this? Still rebooting my phone at least once per day after turning off my Bluetooth headset. Anyone? Anyone?
Please someone try at least to guess what could be reason of this problem!

Thanks for posting that link. That was the fix I needed to get Call recording to work after disconnecting bluetooth head set on Evo
Thanks for the link but...
Thanks for the link, I am very excited to have an answer, but I am such a noob I don't know what to do with that link. Any help applying the fix is VERY helpful....

I am coming from using a Motorola Q9H. When paired with my bluetooth headset (Plantronics Voyager 520), the Q9H would deliver all audio (phone calls, notifcation sounds, Skyfrie, Youtube, etc) through the bluetooth headset. The Fuze doesn't seem to do this. Is there a way to force this functionality, though? I have Advanced Config installed, if that helps any.
Please search the forum. This has been covered many times.
Hint look in Setting/Personal look in there for your answer!

I can't get all sounds through my voyager 520 either. I can do it with my Cardo S-2 stereo bluetooth headphones though, it seems like the Raphael doesn't support that out of the box for non-A2DP profile devices. Sound quality for anything but phone conversations suck through a regular headset anyway. You should really invest in some stereo bluetooth headphones, it's worth it!
Well, the only reason I want to do it is for the odd Youtube video on the bus and such. Quality isn't a concern since I don't listen to music from my phone.
I recently got a set of bluetooth stereo headphones, but before I did, this worked fine for me.

Thank you. I'm going to try that after work.
One thing, if I leave the toggle on, and then disconnect the BT, will it then play the sounds through the speakerphone as usual and then back through the BT as soon as I connect the BT again?
I know the sounds went through the speaker after turning off the BT headset. I think I had to run the toggle app twice to get the sounds to go through the BT headset again (once to disable the old orphaned BT pairing, once to enable it with the new one). I'm not sure about that, though, and can't try it conveniently, as I just flashed a new ROM and didn't bother installing the toggle app since I didn't need it with the new stereo headphones.
Thanks. I'll give it a try and see what happens.

It is free and it works.
Didn't work for me in trying to route TomTom speaker instructions through bluetooth to the car. :-(

Dunno what to say. My initial motivation for trying it out was to route amAze GPS navigation instructions through my bluetooth headset, and it worked fine for that. Worked for TCPMP video sound, too. I don't know why TomTom would be different.

Maybe it's headset/handsfree profile difference?
I hope I am posting in right section. When I stream audio from gtab to prius's Bluetooth multimedia,everything works as expected. However, after disconnecting from car's Bluetooth, sound doesn't come out from gtab's internal speakers. Turning off Bluetooth on grab doesn't help either. I tried different permutations and combinations of stopping music from grab and turning off Bluetooth before turning of car etc. I have to reboot in order to get audio from internal speakers. I had the same behavior with tnt lite 2.2 as well.
Could any one think of possible solution or work around?
plug in and then unplug your earphones. That should restore the speakers. Known hardware bug

Sorry for replying late but I got my hands on my wife's car only today. I confirm that inserting and removing headphones we restore volume from internal speakers

Didn't fix me...
Unfortunately, this didn't fix my issue on my dinc w/ cm7
Here is my problem, I connect my phone to my car radio using a speaker cord connected to the headphone jack of the phone which works great. Problem is when I try to then make a call using my Q2 bluetooth headset. I can make the call, but it reverts back to the car speakers and not through the bluetooth device and the microphone on the bluetooth doesn't work either. It uses the samsung microphone.
Is this a setting issue, or do I need to unplug the speaker cord from the headphone jack every time I try to make a call?
Just found another similar thread. Still no answers?

I too would like to know if there is a way to make it work. so far the only thing that works is unplugging the cable to talk on bluetooth. which is kinda defeats the purpose of hands free. I am rooted and still can't find a solution. if you find any hack please post it here!
one other way is to buy a BT receiver that has audio and phone, but i kinda want to keep my integrated one.

Found it today. I was reviewing a post and poster (cant remember who!) mentioned he had a defective headset and used SoundAbout from the playstore to fix it. That got me curious, so I opened the app description and found that it would help with our problem. I downloaded the free version then the paid version $2.99 and it works. I am so happy you can not imagine. care the settings that worked for me:
Headset Plug in/out, checked.
Headset microphone, checked.
Notification Audio, checked.
Media audio, wired headphones
Bluetooth behavior, Bluetooth disconnected, checked
Bluetooth Auto Enable, checked
Phone call audio, Wired Headphones (but keeps reverting back to "Let Phone Decide" for some reason!)
I will email the developer and see if he has a solution and post back, but this is not a show stopper by any means.
Buy the paid version and enjoy the SG3 the way it should have worked out of the box.

Checking out this app shortly. Did you have to update tot he paid version to solve the issue?
Buy the audio out from micro usb cables and it fixes it.

I have a Plantronics Voyager Legend Bluetooth headset which I use with the Nexus 5.
(Almost) every time I make a call, the headset first blips and you can see in the dialer that Bluetooth is chosen for sound output.
But just after dialing, the audio is back at the phone (handset earpiece). So I have to switch to Bluetooth again. Then during calls, sometimes the audio is routed back to the phone again.
It always works when you move it back to the Bluetooth headset again but it is very annoying.
Phone has stock 4.4.2-latest.
Any other threads about this? Bugs @ Google? Couldn't find anything..
I guess it depends on the Bluetooth device you're using. My nokia bluetooth headphones work perfectly where as I face similar problems like you when I'm using it in my car.
Maybe try the app soundabout from the playstore. Seem to work (sometimes) on my N4 when I had phone audio problems.
Easy solution to my problem: Unpaired the headset and paired it again, now it works as expected!
Hi all,
I've noticed when I connect my phone to a bluetooth speaker or headset, the volume is usually right down to 'off'.
Is there any way to change how this works by default? I am often connecting to many different bluetooth headsets (motorbike headset, car stereo, portable speakers, home theatre, handsfree headset, etc.) and usually on first connection in a while, the volume will be down at 0. I was hoping there was a file somewhere I could edit that would change that to maybe 80%.
I am on Stock 4.4.2 with root.
Cheers, Sandy

I does create a buzzing/hepatic panic when the volume dimmer/warning appears. On my 'x that is.
Thanks mate,
I'll look into it.
