Navigation Audible Instructions Not Working With Headset During Podcasts
Quote from rmbaizan on 30.04.2023, 15:01I have the FodsportsM1-S Pro headset in my helmet linked to my iphone via bluetooth. While listening to music (Youtube Music) and using Scenic, the audible navigation instructions function properly. If I listen to podcasts via the Apple Podcast app, the podcast audio is muted but the audible instructions cannot be heard most of the time. Instructions have come through for a short time at the beginning of a ride at times. However, when I did a test run in my car using bluetooth earbuds (not the Fodsports helmet headset), the audible instructions worked fine whether I had podcasts or music on. I've tried setting voice output to Device Default and As Phone Call, but that doesn't solve the issue. Any ideas on what might cause this problem and possible fixes?

Quote from Guido on 01.05.2023, 11:42For me this works with my Cardo, and since it's also working with bluetooth earbuds it must be something specific with your Fodsports headset. What you could try is select another voice. Scenic has two kinds of voices. Prerecorded ones and synthetic/computer (text to speech) voices. If you have a prerecorded voice selected now, try selecting a synthetics voice (if available for your language). If you have a synthetic voice selected now, try a prerecorded voice now. They both are played using a different audio framework.
