Anyone have issues with low volume with android auto. My 3 XL works fine, proper volume etc....But with my 3a whenever I try and play music the volume is very low. I have to turn the head unit volume all the way up to even hear it.
I tried a different cable, resetting car and phone. etc
If yours is good are you on Pie?
Thanks
Direct connection or via Bluetooth?
If Bluetooth, there is a setting in the developer settings called "Disable absolute volume". Click that and it may fix your Bluetooth volume issues.

Reported. Still an issue on DP6.
Edit: please star it if you experience the issue as well.
I have a Pixel 2 XL and have the exact same issue. Started having the issues in DP5 and it's continuing into DP6. I also just got my phone replaced yesterday by Google for a screen burn, so the first thing I did was update to Q and check to see if it was maybe the old phone, but nope, even with a straight from factory phone with new install of Q it's no different.

Found a Reddit article with a work around for this issue. It worked for me so maybe it will work for you! In developer settings change the below Bluetooth setting to 1.6 and reboot phone and try again.

Odd a Bluetooth setting fixes USB audio routing. Audio through BT is fine in the car, only when routing through USB it is low. Will try next time I drive my in-law's car.

I agree it is odd. However after thinking about it a little when using android auto it requires your phone to be connected via bluetooth at the same time. Even if you un-pair your phone and turn off your bluetooth android auto turns bluetooth back on and pairs your phone to your car.(Atleast with mine that is)
But I have been having success since Friday now after making that change so hopefully it helps you out as well!
I saw the suggestion of that during DP5 and tried that and there was very little difference for me switching to 1.6

Anyone else seeing some odd behavior with bluetooth pairings? I keep on having to re-pair with my laptop (Win 7 64x) and my car (Audi S4). Complete pain.
I use it with my computer (Win 7 32-bit) and my Motorola bluetooth headset, no problems since I first paired each (sometime in July).
I have the same issue at times....quite frustrating and I have found no way to stop it from happening....
Yep. I get this too. My only fix has been to turn off my plantronics earpiece and when turned back on it connects.

It used to work fine for me with stock build. Now on JH3 I have the issue...

I am JH3 as well, FWIW. Dunno if JF6 gave me the same problem. I now have 3 of the same device in my Win7 BT folder. I also remember seeing the BT settings reverting to old ones.
Problem I keep on having is that the media profile, or A2DP, setting won't enable when I turn on my stereo bluetooth headset. It'll sometimes reestablish the media profile if I keep on turning off and on the bluetooth setting on the phone and headset, but most of the time I just end up having to re-pair my it. Would be awesome to know if anyone knew how to fix this.

I suppose I should just throw in there...I never had the problem with JF6. I'm running JH7 now and still have not experienced it, will report if I notice anything.
More Info
While I don't have a solution, I have researched this problem a bit.
In my experience the problem happens when I disable the phone capability of a device.
For instance, I have a pair of stereo bluetooth headphones that I can make calls with, as well as listen to music and other audio.
If I edit the profile and disable the phone function, the whole device disappears from my phone if I reboot it. If I leave the phone option enabled, it does not disappear.
Disabling the media option does not appear to have any affect as long as the phone option remains active.
My rom is stock.
The pairings don't disappear, but my motorrokr s9-hd disconnects and I have to restart the player and then press the headsets connect button. Just hitting the connect button only activates the display, but doesn't start the player. The way the headset connects just isn't right.
There are things like the headset disconnects and the browser crashing, that sometimes don't happen for days and then will happen repeatedly in minutes.
I do hope that froyo fixes some of these problems...
I have some similar problems. I have a Spracht AURA Mobile BT Speakerphone in my car and I don't use it that often but when I turn it on it doesn't seem to keep the pairing every time. It worked fine with my TouchPro on WinMo.
Another strange thing is that when it is working and I turn off the BT on the phone then come back in the car and turn it on again and it pairs, it immediately starts redialing the last number I called. VERY annoying. Fortunately I've caught it every time but I don't know why it would do that.
Strange problem on EU mate 9, before software upgrade to b126 (ota) now the output volume of the bluetooth is very low, any suggestion?
I use bluetooth volume app as workaround : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nightshadelabs.bluetoothvolume&hl=fr
The fix for the sound for playing your music is: check your Bluetooth and make sure it's not connected to a sound bar, car audio or any other music sources.
I went to my Bluetooth and found it was connected to my sound bar, I turned Bluetooth off and now hear sound from all music sources. Hope this is helpful. Joe Z.
On my work car (toyota) it works perfectly, but about 1/2 the time, when I connect to my Mustang (2011), it cranks the BT volume to zero, forcing me to crank it back up.
Well, the BT bug is showing up for me.
I was driving & it just disconnected. When I try to connect to it again, my car say Bluetooth disconnected. WTH?
I'm about ready to go back to my Mate 8.

I was out all weekend last, Memorial Day weekend in the U.S.
Must have been a glitch in the Mustang. Tried everything short of doing a factory wipe on the phone.
When I reset the Ford Sync system (which was developed by Microsoft I think...which explains a lot) to
factory default, the BT started connecting and worked the entire trip back home.
I used to be able to hear calls and media whilst connected to bluetooth in my car. one day it just stopped working. media still works but when i make a call or receive one, there's no audio. calls ,audio, and contacts are all checked in bluetooth settings. i've forgotten devices, rebooted, reconnecting, and nothing helps.
bluetooth connects to everything fine, but no call sound over any accessory i try. got a new car and it won't work in there either. i'm on android 7.1.2 .
searched all over and plenty of people are having these issues but none of the posts i've read solve my problem. any help would be appreciated
Hey hey, I have a 128GB pixel with the same issue. I actually opened a case with Google support today about it. about 3 months back, only phone audio stopped working in my car. I was hoping the 8.0 update would fix it but it did not. I have a 2017 Honda Civic LX. I tried everything on my phone - even factory reset. Media audio works, I can play Spotify just fine but when i get a call, I can not hear the other person and they cannot hear me. The phone indicates it is connected via bluethooth... I'll try to update this post with what they find.

128G pixel here. This happens with every Bluetooth device I connect it to. 2 car stereos, 2 speakers, and a headset. All worked fine and suddenly one day... Didn't. I was hoping O Would fix it with all the Bluetooth bug fixes and changes they implemented.

Darn, so the issue is a bit different. Mine works fine on a couple of other speakers I have.
Did anyone ever solve this? I've got the same issue, but it effects *all* my Bluetooth devices, but only when I am switched to my secondary user profile.
I've reset the phone app but no dice.
My phone will say it is connected to the Bluetooth device for the phone call. If I switch to speaker or phone and then back to Bluetooth, it works. Anyone else have similar?

Hi!
After hours of Googling you are the first I found who has the same error.
I have a Lenovo TAB4 8+, my kid wants to use Zoom and his Bluetooth headset but only the speaker and mic on the tablet works. I tried fresh install, without luck:
There are 4 type of users:
- Owner (primary - this is the only profile which works for calls on bluetooth headset)
- Standard Users (secondary - bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Child (bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Guest
The bluetooth headset is working with other devices, but not with this one. Unfortunately I have no other android device which supports multi-user.
Moreover, there was an hour when bt call worked from secondary user, but couldn't find out what is the problem.
Can anybody help me on this?
Best regards,
Karoly
I use a bovee Bluetooth dongle to listen to music while I drive. When I'm playing music it's like someone hits mute for a split second and this happens every 10 seconds or so. I first noticed this behavior on my last phone (OnePlus 8pro) but only on custom roms. I'm 100% stock on the pixel 7. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks.
Sounds like a bad Bluetooth connection. Connected to my Nvidia Shield my Bluetooth headphones do that sometimes. I just forget the pairing and restart both, re-pair, and it usually works.
Have you reset your radio/bluetooth yet?
My wife had a similar issue, not quite as bad as yours, but frustrating, which got better, after a BT reset, but not 100%.
When she moved to a new phone recently, I suggested I install apps/accounts, and let her fresh configure it from there, so basically almost a full-reset. That solved the whole issue, to date (going on 2+ months now). I suspect there were a few "iffy" apps along the way too, so who knows what all got fixed, through that process...

So I have the same problem on a 2015 Toyota Highlander. On the Highlander, there is a phone connection function for Bluetooth and a video/ audio player. Only connection with Bluetooth. If I select both, it plays normally. I might have to do with your device not connecting using full Bluetooth functionality.

This I believe is the issue when it comes to other equipment and not the phones
I upgraded to s22 ultra from s21. When I get into my car my Bluetooth pairs with my phone for CALLS automatically, however not for AUDIO (both connect on its own once in a while) . I have to manually go into Bluetooth settings and switch on manually. This is annoying since I have a job where I'm in and out of my car. This was never an issue with my previous phone (S21)
Things I have tried but no luck.
In Bluetooth app settings clear data.
In Bluetooth app setting unpair and delete every device in memory.
In Bluetooth agent setting - change battery saving mode to unrestricted from optimized
Hmmm that seems strange.. Maybe try making sure auto is checked in the bluetooth seetings. I have the same phone and I'm not experiencing audio issues.
maybe try running a routine for the bluetooth
There is definitely something wrong with BT in the latest firmware. I occasionally get volume drops and those are huge drops. This bug happened in one or two previous firmware too, got sorted out, but in the latest there is it again. I hope it will be fixed ASAP.
Is it a Ford ?
You have to manually select the phone in Source to play audio or anything else.
Calls take priority over any setting, so they work always without an issue.

It's an aftermarket Bluetooth added to an old Honda via peripheral plugged into the stock cd player unit. I am going to try and disconnecting the battery terminals for 30 mins so I can reset the Bluetooth unit itself.
When I have my car bluetooth device connected as "audio" only, then I have to manually connect to it from my phone.
When I have my car bluetooth device connected as "audio & calls" , then the s22 ultra connects automatically
I recall reading that audio+calls connects automatically
Audio only requires manual connection
I drive a 2017 Ford F150 but I think its not a Ford issue
