Note 5, Gear S, Android auto don't play well together.

So I have a Note 5, have had it a few months along with my Gear S and have had no problems. Gear S also worked great on my Note 4 previously. Last month I installed a Kenwood 9702s Android auto car stereo. Now I find after connecting to my stereo the Bluetooth disconnects to my Gear S. Not an issue while I'm driving but when I disconnect from the radio it does not reconnect to the Gear S. I have to manually go into gear software and reconnect my Gear. Anyone have any idea's?

That is odd. I have a Kenwood in my truck and other than randomly disconnecting, I don't have a problem with it being paired at the same time as my Gear S.

I'm having this same issue with my Note Edge and Gear S in my VW.
