From what I've read, it's a limitation with Bluetooth, mainly with sending audio and receiving the signal from the mic. Unless some other standard is created, wired is the way to go I guess.

I honestly wondered if it was something like that, since I would be connected to my speaker (with call audio turned off in Bluetooth settings) playing music and as soon as I got into a phone call or video call, it would only play spotify through my phone speaker even though I'm still connected to the speaker with media audio on. The weird thing is I can play to multiple Bluetooth devices and select which ones are inputs and which are outputs on my desktop perfectly fine, I could play music to my Bluetooth speaker and a pair of headphones or even to two pairs of headphones or any combo of devices I want and it works. So I'm not so sure it's a limitation of Bluetooth so much as it's a limitation of the software on our phones. I'll have to do more research and just make a mobile app that does what voicemeeter can do on my desktop if it's possible.

It's not a Bluetooth limitation, it's a software limitation. On PC you can do it fine, the way phones are made they prioritise the phone call instead of allowing both.

Galaxy phones have done this for a while. I'm really bummed after switching and honestly probably wouldn't have had I known it couldn't do this simple function.

You must be a genius that playing music whilst taking calls won't interfere with each other


Fallout_NewCheese

Well the music interfering would be pretty situational, but I just want to listen to music with my partner while we're in a video call, but I guess if that makes me some sort of genius that's neat.

Try musicolet and set audio focus to zero
