2013 Leaf SV
Standard audio package (not Bose)
iPhone 5, iOS 7
When I plug my iPhone 5 (iOS7) into the USB port and set the audio input to USB, the phone starts playing music automatically (from whatever music app was last active—e.g. Music or Spotify)
If I stop the music via the phone (hit the stop button in Spotify for example), it stops briefly and then starts again.
The only way to keep the music off is to switch the audio input on the Leaf to something other than USB.
BUT I want to hear audio alerts from the phone such as turn-by-turn directions from the Google Maps application.
It seems like the car is continually telling the phone to start playing music from where it left off. Even if I never told it to play music or manually stopped it.
Feels like a bug in the nice auto-play feature (which works on Bluetooth properly) where the phone plays from where it stopped off when you get back in the car, but the bug is only for the USB interface.
My workaround is to use USB for power only and Bluetooth with audio.
Problem is the awkward set up every time I get into the car:
- Make sure my phone is connected via bluetooth (I share the car with my wife so we have to manually switch phone connections)
- Plug into USB for power
- Switch audio input to Bluetooth from USB quickly (before it starts playing music)
Is there a fix for this???
