Prioritise media audio

[RayReliable]

Has anyone been bothered by or solved this issue? I use Apple CarPlay, it’s great, I like to use Waze for pothole warnings and it now supports EV routes.

But when you use a navigation app the volume control on the steering wheel prioritises navigation volume and I have to resort to the actual real buttons to change music volume. Unless you disconnect CarPlay the volume priority remains on navigation.

Any ideas or ways to switch that anyone has discovered?

I've found that the volume controls on the steering wheel change the audio that is currently playing i.e. navigation if it is currently giving directions, or radio/music if no directions are currently being spoken. That's on Android Auto though.

Yes that how I would expect it to work but it decided to lock onto navigation volume. The annoying part for me is I actually turn the audio off for navigation and only have alerts on.

Maybe it is a Waze issue rather than navigation. Will experiment with Apple Maps.
