Plantronics BT headset issues with Media Audio

[DavidJ726]

Hi all,

I've been using the Plantronics Voyager Pro headset with my HTC EVO 4G for more than a year now. It generally works well and the call quality is great. However, whenever the headset becomes dis-connected and I re-connect it, it re-connects to both the phone as well as to the media audio.

I've put up with this for quite a while, but it's becoming more annoying as I always have to go into the settings and disable media audio, otherwise I miss IM alerts, e-mail alerts, etc...

Is this common for all BT headsets? Or is it a problem with the Voyager Pro, or an issue with my EVO 4G? If one of the latter, is there a solution? It seems that once I set the option to not connect to media audio, it should stay that way unless the device becomes un-paired.

Thanks
David

Hmmm - that's weird. That's the way my BT works. If I de-select an option it stays de-selected. Maybe an EVO bug?

Are you using a custom ROM. If so which one? I've had some issues in the past with some ROMs and with that headset. I have since gotten the BlueAnt T1 and upgraded the firmware. No issues since.

Nope, no custom ROM's, haven't even rooted it yet :-[ I'd like to put a custom ROM on it, but it's a corporate phone that they've provided so I guess i ought to be a little careful of what I do to it...
