Sorry if I missed this elsewhere, but is there a car dock for the S5 that will enable audio/music so I can listen in the car?

Apparently one cannot use a bluetooth earpiece while the Nexus One is in the Car Dock.
This I find rather annoying because my phone is not mounted very close to the driver seat, and I find callers always saying they can't hear me.
Can anyone here figure out a way to get a bluetooth earpiece to work while in the dock?

Tho I haven't tried it with an ear piece, the following combinations seem to work fine for me when in the car dock:
Phone / Media connected to bluetooth CD player in truck
Phone connected to bluetooth cd player and Media connected to car dock
Phone connected to sony LiveView device via bluetooth.
This is all while the phone is sitting in my dock, so I'm not sure why you would not be able to?
Are you on a stock or custom rom?
Well my car doesn't have a bluetooth receiver, so I use the car dock to play the navigation prompts.
Whenever I put my phone into the dock, it unpairs my Jawbone Earpiece and won't let me re-pair it unless I unpair the dock.
Would be nice if I could pair both.

Maybe try changing it so that the dock is only pairing Media (long press car dock in bluetooth settings and click options and uncheck phone) and the jawbone is only pairing Phone.
Not sure if stock roms support dual profiles or whatever to pair with multiple devices at once, but Cyanogenmod does, at least, because I have mine paired to my dock and my receiver at the same time every day.
Also, not sure if this matters but I use dock nothingness (free app) to make my phone NOT launch the car dock app, and then dockcarswitches (another free app) to turn on/off my bluetooth when it's put in and out of the car dock.
I'll try that out tomorrow. Thanks for the advice though. Didn't think to actually set that up the way you did. Silly me.
Are there any car docks for Desire yet that provide charging and audio aux out, just by docking i.e. not manually connecting jack plug to headphone socket.
Found quite a few threads saying it isn't possible, but they are fairly old - surely this must be possible by now?
If not, I guess using a parrot bluetooth device would seem to be my next option for music from desire to car?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
It isn't possible.
It is a car issue. Obviously you'd need something to integrate the AUX/Power to the dock, so the dock can then work with the phone. This would involve either, still connecting the dock to AUX/Power manually with cords (defeating the purpose), or hacking into your dash.

Afaik there are not any interfaces for the Desire.
I bought a Parrot MKi9200 for my car and it's just perfect!
Bluetooth car kit that syncs all your contacts and you have them on the display
Sd Card input
Aux(mini jack), USB and Ipod/Iphone input cables
Music over BT (A2DP)
It even mutes music or radio to give navigation directions or to let you know if you have an sms, etc

With my Samsung Captivate, simply using their car power adapter triggers car dock mode. This doesn't seem to work with SR. Anyone has any clue on how to trigger car dock mode? I'm looking for this as I had my Captivate programmed to do certain thing when in the car via Tasker. Now, the only way for me to do this is to always turn on bluetooth when powered to see if it connects to my car's handfree kit. So bluetooth is turned on even when at home or work. Not very desirable. So it would be great if something can trigger the car dock mode.
So I have a car dock that I used up until now with my S4 to play music etc over the USB.
Now I have an S6 and I can't find any option to route the audio via USB when docked? I have no accessories menu anymore?
Any help appreciated!
Any luck on this? I have s4 with dock cable to run audio out micro-usb to my car aux jack.
