Advice needed for setting in Media output

[davehorne]

I wrote earlier about an issue where the my mics recorded my voice but the recording wouldn't play back on the phone.

I eventually saw that the problem was in Media output (on the dropdown screen); a Bluetooth device was chosen instead of the Phone speaker.  I thought I had inadvertently made that choice, but now I'm not certain.

Just now I restarted my phone and the Media output setting changed, without any input from me, from Phone speaker to my Logitech BT Adapter (which is connected to a set of speakers in my kitchen).  Apart from turning off that Logitech BT Adaptor, what are my options? 

It seems the phone is prioritizing any active Bluetooth signal without me deciding which one I want.  

(In the S24 Ultra, I would have to go into that Logitech BT Adaptor and actively turn that on (from within the phone).  Now it seems the phone 'sees' that Bluetooth signal and makes the decision for me.

You could try this?? Under bluetooth settings add (or remove and re-add) the devices to change the priority. The devices should be listed in priority, and attempt to connect in the order listed. If a device with higher priority is available during a periodic scan it should attempt to drop the connection to the current device and reconnect with the higher priority device.

I think you're on the right track. 

If I go into Settings / Connections / Bluetooth, I can disable Audio for that Logitech BT Adaptor. 

That was the same setting I would see on my S24 Ultra though that setting was under Device Control, I believe.

Thanks.

No worries. Hopefully you'll get it sorted.
