Hi!
Do you know if if will ever be possible in android to split audio streams ?
Precisely :
- set music to be send to bluetooth only, while
- keep notifications and game sound to pass throught onboard speaker
- balance sound volume perapps (as windows does)
For example, wihile listenning to my musics throught external bluetooth speakers, I will be playing a game with it sounds/musics comming throught builtin speaker.
I hate having notifications stopping the music
any idea off an exiting application that allow this?
Thanks

Hello,
I think this question has been talked about in another threads/forums.
but I can't find any thread that matches my problem.
To my problem:
When I listen to spotify(using bluetooth headset Sony SBH50) and receive a notification or use TTS, the bluetooth sound get maxed out.
I can't lower the sound until the notification//TTS sound is finished.
It started after last update of spotify
TS done:
Tested another headset (MW600) and I get the same problem, just it has it's own sound settings so I don't get deaf.
If I don't use BT headset I see that the sound get bumped up abit too but not maxed.
Inactivated tasker, same problem.
I have resettet the SBH50 headset and updated firmware.
Tested a mp3 file in xiialive and total commander(music player).
The music get a bit muted during the notification and then back to the same volume level. So sound is not maxed.
Tested Audible and it has a pause function on notification but no maxed out volume.
Solution / workaround
Solution: ? or to get Spotify fix the problem if it's a bug in the app.
Workaround: Was to change settings files to hard set the max BT volume to 50% of what is max today. If it can be done.
System:
Nexus 5
Android 4.4.2
Factory ROM
Rooted
Uses Tasker, don't have any sound alterations tasks.
Used xposed and GravityBox but exposed is deactivated.
TIA
Daniel

Only good side, is that this forces me to listens to some books I have put on hold for a year.
Note: I have dyslexia so if there is anything you don't understand just ask...
Same problem. Extremely annoying. Imagine the situation, casually using bluetooth earphones while shopping, running, commuting & whatnot. And suddenly the music volume maxes out because a notification eg. for a hangout msg or sms goes off. Any ideas how to cure? Re-route bt audio?
Here's something to try:
with the BT headset connected, go to Settings -> Sound -> Volumes and change the notification volume there (again, WITH headset connected)
This should then set the notification volume for the BT headset without changing the media volume.
I use a BT headset all the time with A2DP (LG Tone+) and have never had this problem because I set the individual volume levels as force of habit the first time I connected to N5...
Hope it helps

Hi, tried that but it didn't help.
I have read that ppl have talked about a BT bug, but I have looked into it.

This is a life saver for parents
o to Settings - sound and vibration - Seperate App sound (all the way at the bottom)
turn on and pick the app you want(limited to 1 app at a time)
Then choose the location (I chose Music to bluetooth)
This way I can still listen to music and be able to hand my daughter my phone so she can watch youtube
Impressive, didn't think of that as a use case. Although I don't think I'll be handing anyone my phone just yet
For example (?) : can you watch a video/broadcast mute (sport game), and listen TuneIn ( running commentary ) at the same time ?
Actually android is deeply missing basic audio mix table !
Also can you (lucky owners) tell us if :
-AKG earphone are ip68 waterproof ?
-Google Music can be uninstall/disable ?
-is embedded EQ working with any browser/video app ?
Thx for sharing...

The only one I can answer is that yes Google play music can be uninstalled

I have a specific question/problem related to this:
Currently I have Google Play Music assigned to Bluetooth.
This is cool because in the car, I can play music - but then play a game or something at the same time.
HOWEVER.....
In order for this to actually work, you have to go to the audio connections hub thing in the notification shade.
And switch your audio output to the phone.
THEN with the audio output set to the phone - itll use the override and send the play music to bluetooth.
You seemingly have to do this every time (I even used Tasker and Autotools custom settings, trying to detect which setting gets changed and make it automatic.... but couldn't see a related changed setting in the settings lists).
A bigger problem though, amidst my messing around to try to make this work better....
I selected "turn off connections manager" option.
Now I don't get that stuff in the notification shade at all.
And I cannot find a single setting that lets me access it again!
So now I can never use separate app audio.
Can someone help me!?!?!?
I have found this feature usefull for SatNav.
I have the phone connected to car bluetooth, so ALL audio on previous phones goes to the car - so as im listening to streaming radio etc, the satnav voice from TomTom kicks in and can be quite annoying - especially as I only want the voice for traffic and speed cameras.
With this feature, I can still stream music to the car but have the audio come through the phone speaker - well done Samsung

Same, once disabled there doesn't appear to be a way to get it to reappear

Give SoundAbout a look. There isn't much it can't manage.
One of my issues with the Google ChromeCast is that when the phone is used as a source, all audio is sent over that ChromeCast connection.
You cannot divert the audio to Bluetooth for bluetooth speakers/headphones.
Does anyone know if this new Samsung feature will allow you to divert ChromeCast audio to Bluetooth?
That would be pretty darn cool if it did.
EDIT: Btw, I don't have the Samsung phone.
I was linked here from a Google Pixel thread. But I'm really interested to know the answer to my question above.

Download Sound Assistant from Samsung in the play store. When you adjust volume hit the icon and then expand the window. To the right of the app volume slider you can switch sound output.
Found the "Audio output" control! Yess!!

Thanks to the post above I was finally able to find the setting to enable the option to select the Audio output on my phone (Samsung S8+) see pictures attached. So if you've lost the option to select the audio output of you S8 follow these steps. (Not to be confused with with Separate app sound, which routes different apps to a bluetooth or phone output)
Find the Samsung Connect app
Click on the three dots to bring down the menu
Tap Settings
Tap Samsung Connect panel
Ensure this is turned on
Tap on Always show
and Finally tap on Audio output << This is the one! :good:
Hello guys,
I was wondering if it would be possible to add and Audio Synchronization per Bluetooth device.
Currently it has the option to save the audio delay per video file or it also have the option to set an audio delay for the device's speaker and a different delay for bluetooth devices, which is extraordinary!
However, it would be really really awesome if it could save an audio delay for specific bluetooth devices.
VLC player has this option, when watching a video you click on more option -> audio delay -> set the audio delay -> and after that it pops out a window that says "save bluetooth device".
It is very useful because for example my car speakers have a extreme delay of 2.25 seconds, but my bragi earbuds have no delay at all, so currently with MX player I need to choose if I want the default settings to be synchronized with my car or with my earbuds or with other earbuds that have a delay but much smaller (around 0.5 sec).
Do you think this feature could be added in a future update? MX player is way better than VLC player in many other aspects, unfortunately, I am currently having to use both because of this it would be extremely incredible if I could uninstall VLC and doing everything with MX Player Pro.
Thank you in advance!
I completely agree!! My delay isn't as bad as yours in my car, but it is still .5 sec. It is VERY annoying, to say the least!! I have the same issue, as I use my regular Bluetooth earpieces EVERYWHERE when I am not in my car, and none of them have audio delays at all, but when I get in my car I have to either manually change every video I play, or go into settings, audio, and modify the Bluetooth delay while I am in the car (which I do since my trip to work is 35 min).
If we could just get a delay setting for EACH Bluetooth device, that would be make MX Player PERFECT for me!!

It's already in our planning. It will be supported on the later versions of the MX Player 1.9.x. As there are some other major features are also in the plan, we can't assure any timeline at the moment.
Here's a trick I'm going to share that should fix the delay for you:
1. Open the audio menu under settings.
2. Select Audio output and change it to AAudio or Java AudioTrack(Prefer AAudio if your device supports it)
3. Set both audio delay and bluetooth audio delay to 0 if they aren't.
4. Enjoy!
Is there a way that when you're playing music through a Bluetooth speaker that the notifications don't interrupt the music, apart from setting the phone to DO NOT DISTURB?

Bluetooth device should have 2 options available: Media Audio and Call Audio, disabling Call Audio for that specific BT device.

Yes I did that, but notification sounds still come through the Bluetooth speaker, what is the separate sounds feature suppose to do?
Putting the phone on vibrate works. My phone for the most part stays on vibrate all the time and notifications never interrupt.
I have Iying uis7862 (FYT31) unit
I have sound only from audio app or aux.
Other apps YT, Spotify etc getting mute after 2 seconds and on max volume I can hear a little bit that music is still playing but really quiet.
Anyone know the solution?
In the Settings, you can configure the different media channels (I don't mean the Equalizer).
Did you already check that?
The only thing is that I can configure media like usb or iPod which doesn't change anything
Silly question but have you opened any of there other OEM audio apps? It seems like they are stealing the audio focus back somehow
Yeah. I've been checking all apps and only aux and radio got sound. OEM music app goes mute after 2 seconds
