Cutting to the chase, I want to know if there is ANY way to control where the Q tries to play MP3's so I can get the sound to come out of the 2.5mm jack even when the phone is paired with a Bluetooth handsfree device. Maybe using a different program than Windows Media Player our using some type of hack?
Here's the situation:
I love downloading podcasts and music onto my Q and listening to them with Windows Media Player. I use the 2.5mm jack on the Q to play the music through my wired headphones or through my car stereo using the accessory jack in my car.
So here's my problem. I also use my Bluetooth headset or my car's Bluetooth speakerphone with the Q for taking phone calls. But if I have the Bluetooth paired with either of them, then Windows Media Player no longer plays music out of the 2.5mm headphone jack. If I'm using the Bluetooth headset, I get (terrible sounding) music through the headset. If I'm using the car speakerphone, I get nothing at all.
The speakerphone situation is particularly annoying because to listen to an MP3 I have to break the Bluetooth connection. Then if I get a phone call, there is no way to answer it on my Bluetooth so I have to actually unplug the 2.5mm cable so I can hold the phone to my ear (which is clearly not even safe).
Many thanks for any tips! |
Thats not possible to the best of my knowledge. I think when bluetooth is invoked, it overrides all other controls regarding the playback of mp3s etc. I will be the first to say if i am wrong, i am wrong, but it was my understanding this is how it works.
