Phone signal disabled when connected to hands free bluetooth

A

AC Question

Google Pixel. Whenever I connect my phone to my car hands free kit my phone signal is transferred to my car.

This is great as I can answer calls direct from car but I then can't use Google Assist or stream music to my phone over data via Spotify because such apps require a data connection on the phone.

On my old HTC One Mini the signal would transfer to my hands free kit yet I still had data/signal on my phone whilst on the Google Pixel (perhaps due to the updated Android version) the signal is dropped on the phone and allocated to my car instead.

Any work around or solutions?
