Question Audio switch alternative? - OnePlus 9 Pro

Hello I recently updated to oos13 and it looks like the audio switch which allowed us to change the output got nixed. Anyone have an alternative or am I missing something.
I just want to be able to keep all my Bluetooth devices connected but switch to output audio from my phone.
I miss being able to click the volume then select output when I needed to change it.

Hey, it is still available from the little square of the music playing in the notifications dropdown, you can change it from there. I discovered this by chance!

Wow you're a savior here. I've spent hours looking for this as a setting but that tile just blends together I didn't even think to push it. Even the OnePlus community forums said it was gone. Still would be better back in the volume UI but I can settle for this.

So it turns out this is only an option for media that pops into the tiles. Ie can't switch audio if I'm playing a game. So although a partial success it's not the same feature they took away

zoombar to change songs

hey, i want to know if theres a way to swipe the zoombar left or right to change the song in htc sense music player while the screen is off and if its possible, could it skip the song no matter what program you are in at the time? i would like this since i never use the zoombar anyway, because its not really needed or used in most programs
thanks
Get the CAB for zoombarplus. That will do what you want.
it does exactly that? are you sure? i thought it just made it a d-pad
edit: nevermind, wrong app, but still im not sure about the app having these features tho, and im new to the registry
Having a d-pad will let you skip forward and backward. I'm not sure about if it will do it with the screen off. No program will let you do it if you have another app open... Obviously you can only control whatever is currently on the screen (the only thing I know that does let you control music anywhere is a headset).

Consider getting a set of Bluetooth headphones. Now only do you get the advantage of not having to deal with a cord, but nearly all bluetooth headphones have volume and track control buttons which work even when the phone screen is off.
what about a small bluetooth remote to change songs?
any recommendations for the tp2?
This might be what you're looking for. You need to plug in your headphones/speakers into the unit, but it gives you control of the music and should work with the screen off.

thats great thanx, i couldnt really find anything like what i was looking for, but this is perfect, definetely gonna check it out
edit: there are atleast 4 threads i have seen about the bt3030 saying it doesnt work with hd2, so im assuming it doesnt work with tp2 either

[Q] MIUI Media Volume

My DHD is currently running MIUI 1.9.23.
Once upon a time all was working well on a previous version of MIUI, but then one day I was unable to change media volume. All other volumes could be changed and worked as expected but when listening to music I went to change the volume and nothing happens. The pop up comes up with the current volume and as I press volume up the slider moves up and when I press down it moves down, but the sound does not change. I can set it all the way to mute, or up to full volume but the sound level stays exactly the same!
All other volume functions work except the media volume.
I figured I must have set something wrong and I found a newer version of MIUI was out anyway so I flashed it hoping it would fix the issue, unfortunately this is not the case.
I use my DHD as my primary music player and I'm guessing the media volume is stuck roughly half way and even though the level is changing on screen as I adjust it, there is no sound change.
Does anyone know why this is and if I can fix it?
No Ideas?
How annoying, might have to go back to iPods... really wish I didn't put so many Nano's through the wash....
Sounds like it is stuck in car mode.

My Desire HD is one of many that launches car mode all the time when plugged in to its charger. I have been unable to resolve this issue but it only adds a little steering wheel in the notification bar so I haven't bothered fixing it.
I didn't know car mode affected the headphones, is there anyway I can add the app to some sort of blocked list? I have tried uninstalling car mode but that makes it try to launch constantly and when it can't find the app is causes the whole system to hang for a minute of two.
You could download bloatfreezer I believe its called from the market
Then you can freeze that nasty car panel til the end of time!!

Hello
I have a question: Is it possible to use the Sense music player in MIUI? (with Dolby Mobile, SRS and Beats)

Just tap the wheel, that'll cancel car mode.
With MIUI, car mode transfers volume control to your cars audio. Unfortunately, MIUI cannot tell the difference between any other audio device. Plugged-in or Bluetooth.

Google Play Music - cool feature for bluetooth

Hey I hope somebody who didn't already knows this finds it useful. I'm talking about the button in Play Music that switches the audio output from the phone's internal speaker to the headset/bluetooth output (car for me). Over the years I've had repeated issues with Bluetooth audio particularly media audio, sometimes it just doesn't go out any speaker no matter what, until a reboot of either or both the phone and the Motorola T505.
Currently using the AOKP Milestone 1 ROM (amazing) and Google's own Play Music (pretty alright), I'm back in control of my music while driving.
I'll post a screenshot of the button in the app once I'm off my work network as I can't upload the picture right now.
hey, where;s the button? I'm going crazy why bluetooth out sounds like dog doo. (new gs3)
It's in the top right hand corner on the Now Playing screen.

[Q] No notification sounds when playing music?

Hey guys,
Just got my M8 last week and I love it, but there's one thing so far that has been bugging me. When either playing or streaming music via BT in the car or via headphones at the gym/home, I've noticed that my notification sounds will not come through. Every other android phone (or iphone) that I've owned that I can remember has always attenuated the music for a second to play the notification sound. So far, I have not been able to figure out how to get my M8 to do this. It doesn't even vibrate to let me know I have a text/email/whatever... at best, I'll look down at the phone and the notification light will be blinking.
So, can anyone point me in the right direction to get this feature working again?
Also, FYI - I'm on the stock, rooted ROM with Xposed installed and s-off

I actually like it like , I noticed it right away. I did look around all the phones settings even in the dev section and didn't see any settings to change the behavior.
Mine kinda does the same thing.
It just cuts the music for a second but i believe its because i use PowerAmp.
i'm still aware of getting a notification, just through slience.lol

Music controls card not showing up

I've only had the watch for a day now, but it's pretty cool so far! But I was listening to music this morning through a streaming app (Music Unlimited), and when I started I saw the notification pop up at the bottom of the screen letting me know the track name - cool. A couple minutes later after changing absolutely nothing, the notification card changed to the track name and a play button. This new notification also allowed me to swipe left to see the full music control card (forward, back, volume up and down) which was super awesome! Sadly I swiped right on the card and dismissed it by accident, and it never came back... I restarted the phone, the watch, and the app a few times but nothing changed (I only see the notification with no play button).
Now I know that maybe the music control card should only work for the stock music player at this early stage, but it's pretty frustrating for it to be there and then suddenly gone for the streaming player. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this happen and if anyone knows how to get it back?
in poweramp I had to enable android lock screen (in poweramp settings) to make the card appear . maybe you've got similar option in this player
Thanks for the idea, but lock screen controls are on by default in this app, and that functionality is still working fine on the phone. Weirder still is that there's also a notification bar on the phone that let's you control the music which you would've thought would transfer to the watch for sure since it gets all notifications...

Ok so I've found out that Wear Music Controller will work for this app even though it isn't listed as supported, lucky! It also lists a pretty compete set of supported music apps so maybe it'll help someone else too. Seems like this will control any music playing on your phone...
I still consider this a very temporary fix though because it's not a very nice looking controller design compared to the built in one I was trying to get back, but I'm glad I found something in the meantime! Looking forward to hearing other people's solutions.
Edit:
WOW, so frustrating and confusing! It just came back for 30sec...it was there, working, then watch went into ambient mode and it was gone again...
