Audio cuttet via Bluetooth

[Haug]

I set now a delay of 2 sec but the beginning of the speech is still cuttet.

[Con Hennekens]

@Haug, can you please check the version of the app?
Main screen, tap the account icon top right, scroll completely down.
What's the number there?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Con-Hennekens We all know what number it says
This setting has only been available since the last update!

@Haug If the delay does not work could you share the following info?

• What phone are you using?
• What version of the above?
• Does the delay setting actually add a delay (disregard that you still have the issue but is there a noticeable different between 0 and 2 seconds)

[Con Hennekens]

@Corjan-Meijerink, yes of course, but I wanted him to find out for himself
The pre-public beta had this setting already without the wanted effect, didn't it?

[Haug]

@Corjan-Meijerink
Good evening,

App version is 5.0.1 - 433
I use iPhone 15 with iOS 26.1

There is a delay but even at 2 sec it’s not enough

[Haug]

Hello Corjan,

Today I did some Tests in the car, connected via Bluetooth to my Autoradio. It doesn’t matter, what delay you adjust, the cut at the beginning is always the same length.
So I assume,

the slider is just fake.

Regards

Günter

@Haug Thanks for your reply!
I can guarantee you, the slider isn't fake
Your audio system not respecting it, is another thing.

I haven't yet seen any iOS device with these issues.
It's always Android to be honest

I'll test some different configurations to see if I can reproduce this.
Just to be sure, you are not using CarPlay but simply the car radio as bluetooth audio device?

[Haug]

@Corjan-Meijerink
Exactly, my car has no CarPlay.
The same happens, if I just connect a headphone.
Can even try another apple device

[Haug]

Ok, it’s the same on iPhone and iPad. The slider makes no difference if 0 sec or 2 sec.
The length of the cut at the beginning is slightly different on every Bluetooth device. I did the test with headphones and Bluetooth speakers.
I even tried to change to English language.
Every time the same.

Wait a minute... Assuming you plug the headphone into your phone: Are you saying this also occurs if audio comes directly from your phone...?

[Haug]

@Con-Hennekens it’s a Bluetooth headset

[Haug]

@Con-Hennekens
Directly via speaker in the phone, there is no problem

[Haug]

Ok, could you reproduce this error?

[Con Hennekens]

@Haug, No I cannot reproduce it, because on my devices it does not occur anymore. I bet your headset is one with intercom function active, which is why it needs to do audio ducking for the navigation instructions. It looks like it is doing that purely based on volume monitoring. If you don't use the intercom function, you could try pairing your phone as intercom, it will probably become higher up in the chain of priorities.

That's an interesting concept !

@Con-Hennekens
I do use Intercom on my bike but I repeat: the same Problem exist with my carradio (Bluetooth Connection) and with a jabra Bluetooth headphone.

[Haug]

Did something change about this issue in the latest update?

[Aiello antonino]

I read on the Apple Facebook pages, that many users with iOS 26 are having problems with CarPlay, that's why I haven't updated yet and I stayed on iOS 18, but the behavior is strange that it also happens with the intercom connected directly to the CP, I also use the same configuration, I think it's useless to interpose an additional device when the audio source still comes from the iPhone, it goes through CP and then goes to the intercom...
