When the watch 3 is Bluetooth connected to the s20u it seems that audio on my phone is really low, until i disconnect the watch.
Is there a setting or something that fixes this?
TIA

It's the phone, not the watch...
Since the watch can pick-up calls, the sound settings in your phone would use Bluetooth logic for calls, did I notice or encounter it...? I don't really know because my watch is always connected to my phone... how do I know this...? I made the dualspeaker mod and worked with many mixers files related to audio and Bluetooth has many path names...
But other than that, everything else should be fine with the media, notifications and system audio...

when the USB headset is connected, I can't hear the notifications for pure radio related alarms like incoming emails/SMS, etc. anymore on the phone's speaker. only via the headset. as nobody wears the headset all the time, this is pretty nonsense. any nokia device is able to differ between sounds of the device (like music playback) and sound of the radio (email ringing, sms), that I want to hear, even if the headset is connected. with bluetooth headset, this works perfectly well. any tweaks there?
Try resetting (restarting).

Does this mean, it works differently on your Kaiser? Thought this is a general behaviour with all Kaiser devices that you can't change with just resetting?
Hi,
I have a Nexus 6 (stock 5.1, rooted but no other system modifications), a pair of Philips Fidelio M2BT Bluetooth headphones and a Watch Urbane (fully stock). When I connect the headphones to the phone with the watch already connected I get no media sound in the headphones even though they connect successfully. If I look go to the Bluetooth settings the headphones are listed as "Connected (no media)". Sometimes the sound is played on the phone speakers and sometimes nowhere. I can usually get around this by first disconnecting the watch in the Wear app before connecting the headphones and then the watch. Sometimes I also need to turn Bluetooth off and back on before starting to reconnect the devices and sometimes I need to reboot the phone. I've used the phone and headphones together for half a year with no issues whatsoever. Also note that I'm not trying to connect the headphones to the watch but to the phone.
Anyone else seeing similar behavior? Any ideas on how to solve this issue?

I don't have my Urbane yet, so I'm not sure if I can help. But when the phone is connected to the Urbane, can you edit the Bluetooth connection on the phone to ensure that it's not taking audio (I know it doesn't have speaker, but is it taking the Media Audio Profile?)

Thanks for the suggestion but no, the Urbane is listed only as a "raw" Bluetooth device, i.e. there are no check boxes for profiles in it's Bluetooth settings. In fact it's never listed as connected at all in the Bluetooth device list. I figured that this is some kind of Android Wear quirk but it's my first Wear device so I'm not sure.
I have the watch and my bluetooth speaker in the car and I have had no issues using both of them. I also have a third bluetooth USB adapter connected to the USB of my car that allows me to stream music and no issue with it either. I have the OnePlus One with custom firmware running Lollipop 5.1.1
My bluetooth speaker only has "Phone Audio" checked (no other options), the bluetooth USB stick has the "phone audio" unchecked and the "Media Audio" checked, and the Urbane does not have a check mark option.
Try updating the Android Wear app.. they released some update yesterday that might help fix your issue.

Thanks for the info. The new wear app didn't make any difference but the fact that you have a couple of Bluetooth audio devices working flawlessly made me start suspecting my headphones instead of the watch - didn't really know where to start so I picked the watch since it's the latest addition. Searched around a bit and realized that others were having connectivity problems with them too, especially when using them with multiple devices (fantastic headphones in every other aspect). This review was really interesting and the tip about how to reset the headphones did the trick for me. Not a great solution as I probably need to repeat it after using them with other devices than my phone but at least I now know that the watch is not to blame - it was just the trigger for some bug in the crappy headphone Bluetooth implementation.
Situation:
when my NOTE 8 is connected to my LEVEL U PRO and i get in my car, phone continuously pups up a screen asking for a password for CAR AUDIO and a notification sound every minute, its disturbing...
(it keeps trying to connect to CAR BT even though they're UnPaired AND phone is still connected to LEVEL U Headphones)
when phone and car are paired, PHONE connects to both devices automatically and i dont want that so i UNpaired them.
my car BT is AlwaysOn and cant turn it off
Question: is there any way to stop this?
Is it possible that it's your car BT that is thinking "I was paired to the Note 8... ah, there is it, hey Note 8 why won't you talk to me?"
I would try flushing your car BT's settings, or if you can't do that, try and pair it to a different phone so that it doesn't keep trying to bother your Note 8.

You Are Right.
seems like my CAR BT has a list of paired devices, that when any of them is in reach it tries to connect to it, so tough i Unpaired CarBT from phone, my car still has it in it's list and tries to connect, but my phone requires password cause I've UnPaired them.
removing my phone from that list SOLVED the problem (the pop up and the notification sound)
BUT, I would better like them to be Paired AND Not Connect Automatically. is this possible in android?
cuz you know when i want to connect to CAR BT i have to PARK and re-enter the password (then they are paired and i have to Unpair and delete device from list again)
it would be nice to have them paired but only connect when i want (for music play)

What happens if you pair them, but switch off the media facility? Then you can just enable/disable the media as and when you want to use it in the car?

I didn't quite understand that, but i think the best solution (for me) is to let my phone connect to both CarBT and LevelU, then i disable call audio for CarBT from my phone's paired device settings.
so CarBT has only Media audio
and LevelU has both Media and call (so both works when im out of car and only connected to LevelU)
then, when i'm in my car and connected to both LEVEL and CAR, i set the audio output (from samsung connect panel on pull-down notification area) to CarBT, but since CarBT doesn't have CallAudio, the music will play on car, but during a call, music is paused and call audio comes from my LevelU just as i wanted
i'll have to test for a while for any flaws...
i think you kinda meant the same thing?

I have encountered a weird problem specifically related to PUBG. When I start the app, it sometimes, randomly routs the audio to phones main speakers (the speaker primarily used for calls). Sometimes, it routs the audio through the loudspeaker even while I have connected a wired headset through adapter provided in the box.
When I connect a Bluetooth headset before starting the game, it plays extremely downgraded sound through the headset or simply uses the primary speaker (as above) as sound output, totally ignoring the bluetooth headset. Whenever this kind of problem occurs, restarting the device solves it, but on a later stage it comes back. Other applications like youtube and Google Play Music behaves as they should with all the three sound output options (Loud Speaker, Wired Headset and Bluetooth Headset). The problem occurs only with PUBG Mobile. Can anyone please provide a solution to this?

Encountered the same problem with Bluetooth headset and I fixed it by -
1) Going to world chat.
2) Pressing the voice message button for a few seconds.
3) sound stops coming for a second .
4) You get perfect quality audio after that.
PS - It only happens for me using Bluetooth headphones, not in my earbuds. And never tried phone loudspeakers while playing the game.
Actually what happens is, when the game starts, for some odd reason, your phone thinks you're receiving a call and acts accordingly. If you use any of the mic actions in the game for a second, it fixes it.

That's my concern. Do other phones also have this issue or just Mi A2 has it?

I had the same problem on Redmi 5 plus (Vince)
Does anyone else have bluetooth audio quality issues with their S10? When I connect my phone to my car bluetooth, the audio is crackly sounding, somewhat like a static sound. It seems to be with the bluetooth connection itself and not any particular app - phone calls, data calls, youtube videos, spotify, discord all for example suffer from this. I need to test a bit more but I think it happens on my bluetooth headset too, but it's harder to tell because it's a cheap headset to begin with. However, the car issue does NOT happen with any other device I use, so it isn't something to do with my car.
Nobody?
I have same issue, tested with an iphone and quality is normal
