Bluetooth handsfree silenced by aux. audio out

I have Bluetooth handsfree in my car. It works fine with the Fascinate. ...until I plug my Fascinate auxillary audio output into the auxillary audio input for my car stereo. After that, the Bluetooth connection is maintained and dialing is possible, but call audio doesn't work as long as the auxillary audio jack is in use.  The moment I unplug the audio cable, handsfree audio works again.  This is unacceptible; I should be able to use Bluetooth handsfree for calls while I listen to music playing out through audio out.  My old phone did that fine.
Unfortunately, Samsung seems to disagree.  Their support told me:
"Dear Mr Dale
Thank you for your inquiry.While your hanset does  support the bluethooth profile for hands free operation, this would be best addressed by vehicle manufacturer, as they can provide a list  handsets approved for compatibility.In most cases, this information is avaliable on the manufacturer's website.Please bear in mind that samsung does not support the use of any third party hardware with are handsets. We apologize for any incovenience this presents.
Felipe."
Any chance Verizon could lean on them to fix this design flaw?

Since this error only occurs on your Droid I would assume that it is a system error. I recommend performing a factory reset to clear out all settings. The steps to do this are listed below:
 Performing a hard reset will remove ALL data including the Google account, system data, application data, application settings, and downloaded applications.

  • IPhone 5 question about Bluetooth headsets and headphone jack audio out.

    I have an iPhone 5. When I'm connected to a bluetooth headset, can I still use the headphone jack to play audio through my stereo between calls without having to disconnect the headphone jack for calls or shut off the headset for tunes?

    when one connects a wires headset it it mutes the internal speaker

  • Simultaneous E71 Bluetooth handsfree and Headphon...

    I have Bluetooth handsfree (factory) built into my Car Audio that is non-A2DP. So to listen to Audio on the E71 I need to connect through Headphone to the Car Stereo system. When I do this , Bluetooth Handsfree malfunctions. The Audio (that Im listening to )  is silenced when there is an Incoming call that I answer, but the E71 seems to cut-off ALL audio through its bluetooth  as well (I hear silence plus the other end is unable to hear anything I say).
    Ideally, I would like to have the listen to my music through the Wired Headphone link, but would like to take the incoming call through bluetooth handsfree. Any way to make both these work together?
    Please help if any of you have a fix for this.

    I doubt if this is possible because  there is interlock mechanism (hardware/software) that once the phone senses a head phone is plug into its socket be it from other source, the speaker(mike too) as well as blue tooth profile for head phone are disable. A2DP in blue tooth means it could transmit/receive in stereo.Have you tried to go the web site of that car kit, it could only be an upgrade of its firmware will solve the conectivity issue your facing. Blue tooth connection only without using a separate cable to the stereo system.

  • Bluetooth Headset and Headphone audio out at same time?

    My GF and I were on our way to NYC on Acela and decided to watch a movie to kill time. I inadvertenly forgot to bring my headphone splitter, so I figured I could plug in one set of earphones into the headphone jack and use my bluetooth wirelessely. Upon doing so, the Mac Pro brand new, would only let me select one output via sound preferences. Any ideas or works arounds to allow audio out to both headphone jack and wireless? Is it possible to attach 2 bluetooth sets for wireless capabilities to watch movies?

    Yeah I do it. I use a Jabra bluetooth adaptor that uses the headphone port. Then I tuck the luetooth unit under my Marware Relay wristband.

  • Ios8 Bluetooth audio out for car/headset

    I have connected my iphone to my car via bluetooth, I can make phone call via my car speaker&mic but How can I set up  Bluetooth audio out for car/headset?
    Thanks!

    I have this and also a car charger adaptor for it, but it doesn't work because Apple changed the volts on the charger.

  • Is there any way to use bluetooth and force audio out at the same time?

    I have an older treadmill that uses IFit which means a program on my phone controls my treadmill via an aux audio cable. I like using BT headphones so I don't have cords hanging. So...I'm trying to figure some way to either a) have iphone connected physically to treadmill but bt'ing music to my headphones at the same time or b) get iphone to communicate with two different bt devices simultaneously. (Treadmill can also be controlled via BT, but I still need the BT for headphones)
    Any ideas would be great. I currently have cable running from treadmill to iphone and headphones via a splitter but it's a LOT of cord hanging which makes things difficult.

    No. FaceTime is one on one only.

  • Optical audio out turns off during silence

    My optical audio out port turns off when no sound is being played. When a sound is played my speakers pop as the receiver switches into optical mode. This takes a second so I miss system sounds. I would like to set the optical out to always stay on, even when I'm not listening to music so I can hear these sounds and avoid popping. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

    Note that there are several different ways that an iPod or Nano can support TV output, depending on the iPod model & type of connection. The charts at iPod and iPhone: TV out support may be of some help with this, but it still can be confusing, depending on which of the two Apple docks with very similar names you might have used, or if you used any third party connection products.
    Because of this, it probably would be best for each of you asking for a solution to describe in detail which items you used in your connections, & which of the TV's video input jacks that you plugged the output connectors into.

  • Nokia N9 mutes audio out when connected via Car's ...

    Hi,
    I've connected my N9 to my car's stereo using the standard audio out.
    However as soon as the bluetooth link for phone control is established, the audio out is muted.
    The same setup with my C7 works just fine.
    Could it be that the N9 tries to send audio via bluetooth? My car's stereo doesn't support that (only aux in), so this would be really annoying.
    Thanks for any help
    Nils

    @njeisecke
    Unfortunately N9 is a step backwards from Bluetooth connectivity point of view compared with latest S^3 devices and whereas Bluetooth handsfree should not be an issue there are instances with some car makers ICE where it will stream media but not function in handsfree connection!
    Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

  • BH 600 Bluetooth Handsfree

    I bought a BH 600 Bluetooth Handsfree a week ago. It was working fine. Just today, it suddenly disconnected. Following all the steps again, i press and hold the (call) button on the handsfree till the light becomes steady on. Search for paired devices on the phone, it shows the model BH-600, connects, asks for Passcode, acknowledges it on entering, and i set it as authorised. But when i select the newly added BH600, and select "Connect" it says Bluetooth connection failed. The device is responding fine, even clicks on the device sound alright, but it fails to connect. Please Help. Also, i'd like to know how to see wether the device is Original or a fake?

    I've found out how the pairing can be done. When the headset is paired with a phone, it will not pair with another phone or device again. The way to get it to work is as
    1. Switch on the headset by pressing the button and hold it until the green LED is stable.
    2. Connect the new device by pairing it.
    3. The headset is connected to the new device.

  • Connecting audio out of TV to sound c

    Hey,
    I have the audigy 2 platinum card. Today I connected the audio out from the tv to the sound card. What I got was some background noice and a delay. What ever was being said through the tv's speakers would come out through the computer's speaker with a second or two of delay. Basically I connected the cables to the tv's out and to the aux 2 in. Am I doing something wrong? Is there another way to connect the sound to come out through the computer's speaker without the delay? Thanks in advance for the help.

  • What happened to the audio out function in the Music app?

    I have had pretty good luck with iOS 7, but the one thing that really bugs me is that they took out the audio out function in the Music app.
    In iOS 6.X's Music app the Now Playing screen had an Audio Out option at the bottom of the screen.  I am sure it was called something else, but you could tap it and choose the audio out channel you wanted to use, iPhone speakers, earphones, bluetooth and I think AirPlay.
    Why would they remove this option?
    I was just wondering if there is another music player that still includes this option. I use Stezza for in the car (Big buttons) and Lagu when I want the old iOS music player interface.  But neither of them include the audio select option.
    I will submit this as feedback on the feedback page to see if they will consider putting it back in.

  • Expand mini to two audio out ports?

    I am thinking about purchasing a Mac mini, but I noticed it only has one audio out port. I am using both audio outs on my Dual 1GB now - the audio out on the back panel and the headphone port on the mirror front. I use one for speakers and one to my stereo.
    Is there a way to have two audio outs on a mini? I am not sure a Y-connector will work (impedance issues?), and an A/B switch will only give me output on one line at a time.
    Any ideas? Some kind of 3rd-party device?

    One option would be to use a Bluetooth headset, a second option would be to get a USB audio interface or USB speakers, and a third option would be to run speakers from your stereo system (many modern AV receivers support more than one set of speakers).
    What are you trying to output? It sounds like two different thins at the same time?

  • No sound from rear audio out port?

    Hey guys.
    I am trying to troubleshoot a sound issue with a Vista Home Basic machine.
    I can't really give you all the MOBO specs etc because I am not currently in front of the machine. I can however confirm that it is using a Realtek chipset and is configured using the Realtek Sound Manager software.
    I am really just wanting to use basic sound (i.e. just speaker, not 5., 7. etc).
    I am trying to make use of an old stereo system by using a 3.5mm aux jack to dual RCA (white and red) plugs.
    I can get sound when I plug the aux jack into the front earphones port but I cannot get sound when I try and use the analogue audio out (lime green) port at the rear of the machine. Vista states that it is working correctly and has a tick next to the speakers but no sound is produced by the speakers.
    The MOBO has the following available audio connectors:
    Analogue = Mic in (Pink) Audio in (light blue) Audio out (lime green)
    Centre Speaker (Orange) Rear Surround (Black) Mid Surround (Grey)
    Digital = x SPDIF
    You may ask at this point, why not just use the front headphones jack? Well, the problem is that it seems to be very sensiti've in that Vista keeps reporting that the jack is cycling between a connected and disconnected state.
    I also cannot use the SPDIF, as the old stereo only supports aux left and right RCA.
    Also, when I try and get one of the rear ports to work, I have made sure that nothing is connected to the sound ports at the front as I know that this can cause problems.
    When I plug in the 3.5mm jack into the green port, the Realtek sound manager kicks in and says that "a jack as been connected". I then confirm that I have infact connected the jack to the rear audio out port. I then follow the steps in the wizard but am not able to get sound.
    I made sure that I used the most basic settings (i.e. speakers and not 5. etc).
    I even tried the grey, black and orange ports (even though I know they are used for surround sound setups) and still no luck.
    One interesting setting I did notice was that in Winamp, I had to select the "allow mono speaker" setting to have it play sound through the front headphones port.
    However, when I was configuring the rear green port in the Realtex Sound Manager software, there was no mono option. There was only stereo, 5., 7. and some quad....... thing.
    Any ideas guys on how to get the rear green port working?
    I am wondering if it has something to with a connector on the MOBO. But as I said, Vista and Realtek manager seem to report that all is well.
    My thanks in advance.
