I have a Pixel 9 Pro XL, on Android 16 (beta 3).
When attaching to USB in my car, the Android Auto feature won’t play my music, the vast majority of the time. I use Power Amp and music is fine over Bluetooth.
It’s not the wire. Also, my GF’s iPhone works fine.
So, definitely an OS/software glitch. I make sure that Total Adblock is turned off and restart my phone before attaching to USB.
The music may actually work about 2/10 times. However, I can’t determine the exact situation during the moments it works.
Any ideas? TIA.
In my car’s case even when wired the audio runs over Bluetooth, that might be part of your problem? Also remember that USB cables can vary a lot in quality, I would try a cable you know to be reliable and see if that helps.
I spent a bit of time consulting with the folks at Micro Center to find a high quality cable. As I mentioned, my GF’s iPhone works fine.
