Ring App won’t release bluetooth audio connection. Ring app is interfering with other Apps and phone usage. The live view stream doesn’t release bluetooth audio connection.(not mad, just starting with search keywords)
When using bluetooth audio (all day for me and in car) if I view a Ring live view it takes over audio output to play cam audio BUT when i hang up the stream, audio is still connected. This keeps other apps and devices from being able to interact with the phone or play audio until i kill the apps from the task manager OR use vehicle controls to send a separate “hang up” command.
2 things make this more than a nuissance:
-
Any time i’m holding the phone, ring alerts get touched and it opens the live stream. (Probably an issue with my phone’s and lock screen behavior in hands or pocket.)
-
I’m wearing bluetooth hearing aids all day long now, when the connection doesn’t close, amplification doesn’t return to normal and i can’t hear properly until find my phone and close the app. This doesn’t seem to happen when viewing recordings, so i’m guessing there’s a 2way connection handler that’s just not getting properly closed in Android.
Galaxy S8+, Galaxy S10+ and Galaxy Note10+ have all had this problem.
I did some searching and paged through recent posts and didn’t find anything. Sorry if this is known. thanks.
