should be doable, but it depends on the app that accesses the heart-rate monitor as what type of device it's being addressed.
I know, because I use a BackBeat 903 headset for "phone" connection and a Motorola T505 for "Audio" connection, which pipes my music from my N1 into my car stereo via FM. When a call comes in, the Music stops/pauses and the N1 switches the call into my BT headset. After the call is done, the music continues via the T505/car-stereo.
According to bluetooth specs (if i recall right) Bluetooth can handle 7 devices at once/parallel connected

Thanks for the reply...

music over bluetooth on a car station only with handfree mode ?

dears,
i have a new car with integrated audio car and bluetooth function. fortunatly the audio car only permit me to make phone calls but no possible to hear music from my diamond over bluetooth. Do you believe there is some way to hear music to stream over the hand free like if i am receiving a phone calls ?

It depends on the type of bluetooth profile that the car uses.
To use it for music, it would need to be A2DP.
With your bluetooth on, try going to the settings screen in touch flo and click Menu > Bluetooth Devices.
Click and hold on the device in the list that is your car. If you have the option to "Set as Wireless Stereo", the car has the A2DP profile. If not, you're SOL.

I do this with a made in Taiewan, "non-name" headset and also a Motorola T505 speakerphone for the car.
I simply PAIR the device in the BT menu and if the device supports, it shows up as paired to handsfree and Media Audio in the BT menu.
I sometimes (rarely) have an issue when I switch devices where the BT menu will only pair in speakerphone mode and not MEDIA AUDIO mode. I just re-pair and everything is fine.
Not hard, has always works on my MS (stock 2.01, 2.1 and most ROMs I have tried (my fav is currently CM6).

Car stereo hijacks bluetooth media connection

I have a Pioneer car stereo with built in Parrot bluetooth and media connection. I had this issue with my previous phone so it must be either an Android issue or problem with my car stereo bluetooth. Every time I connect bluetooth to the car stereo the phone enables media connectivity and I have to manually go in and turn it off again. Sometimes I have to turn it on and off again as it says it's connected even though it isn't (tick box is ticked but if I untick it it connects and I have to untick it again and OK it to verify). Also if I disconnect it then cycle through the sources on the car stereo as soon as I get to bluetooth it enables it again.
I don't want it on because I want to hear media audio through the phone speakers and phone calls through the car stereo.
Android 4.1.2 at present.

I think the answer lies in the question here,, Parrot Bluetooth Media Connection.
The stereo isn't 'smart' enough to determine that what is connecting to it is a Phone/MP3 and as such you wont be able to split the audio to have the phone play music and the Stereo take calls, it'll end up being one over the other.
One way around this would be to test with a completely different Bluetooth Headset to see if this allows music to be played on the Device and Calls to come through on the Headset,, failing that its going to have to be a potential dev jobby to split how the device sends its audio and to what specific device,,, if that lies with HTC and Android/Us or Pioneer/Parrot themselves,, might be worth asking whats the official standpoint on this with the Manufacturer and see if they are getting this same issue from multiple folks

I have the same problem with my HTC One across four different ROMs, two GE and two Sense.
It's NOT an issue with my car stereo (uConnect system) as it works flawlessly on my Nexus 7 and VZW Galaxy Nexus. I prefer to have media (music, Ingress etc...) play over the phone. Only thing I want to play over the uConnect is the actual phone. No matter how many times I unselect media in the bluetooth settings it selects it again.
I see this is an old thread, anyone have any ideas?
Nope. It does not always do it though. I found that if I leave bluetooth on it seems to be OK just as long as I don't switch through from aux to radio to CD and back to USB again on the Pioneer. If I use the automatic bluetooth app to save battery it connects but then connects with the media option enabled. Bummer.

I've just installed Bluetooth Auto Connect have to go run some errands in a little while, I'll let you know if it helps out managing profiles or not.
If it works let me know what settings you used as I don't understand all the options lol.
bluetooth problem
Hi developers: Thanks Team Venom for a great ROM. I have only one problem. Rom 2.7 no problem with Bluetooth in the car. 3.1 Installation of clean and dirty disables bluetooth. Ten seconds connected and then disconnected. Again, connects and disconnects. So it all over again. It is in version 3.6 ... any change BT software? You can install the software separately BT? Or any other advice? Thank you very much
edit: I deleted the original settings in the car. Again the connection and still the same problem.

2 bluetooth connections

Hi,
I've recently bought a new car which has Bluetooth but rather stupidly I've just discovered that it can only be used for calls. So what I'd like to do is buy a 2nd Bluetooth receiver and connect it to the cars aux port so that I can stream Spotify to my car. But my question is, could I be connected to both Bluetooth devices at the same time and could I configure one (the cars) for calls and the other (3rd party) for music? If so how would I set this up on the phone?
Many thanks
Yes it could. I'm using it that way
Just disable calls on 1st and disable music on 2nd device

i'd have thought you are just not setting it up right in the car, but i had a Mini loaner that was also somehow only phone use and not music enabled. just weird.
in your bluetooth settings, there's an exclamation mark inside a circle that is used for device-specific settings (as any other phone has as well) that will let you choose phone and/or media for each device.
so your car will be phone only of course, but on your bluetooth receiver, you'd pair it, and you have the option to turn off the phone function for that receiver so that its an audio-only device
