Sound plays through the speaker when I connect my HUAWEI FreeBuds/FreeLace series or WATCH Buds earphones with my phone for navigation

Problem

When using AutoNavi Map or Baidu Maps for navigation, audio switches from the earphones to the phone speaker.

Cause

The Bluetooth audio channel settings in the navigation app are incorrect.

Solution

Set audio output to a Bluetooth device in the navigation app.

  • Baidu Maps: Touch the profile picture in the upper left corner and go to Settings > Navigation > Auxiliary.
    • If the current audio channel is Bluetooth device call channel, switch it to Bluetooth device media channel.
    • If the current audio channel is Bluetooth device media channel, switch it to Bluetooth device call channel.
    • If the current audio channel is Speaker, switch it to either Bluetooth device media channel or Bluetooth device call channel.
  • AutoNavi Map: Touch Me in the lower right corner, and go to Settings > Navigation > Bluetooth connection.
    • If the current audio channel is Phone, switch it to Media.
    • If the current audio channel is Media, switch it to Phone.
    • If the current audio channel is Speaker, switch it to either Bluetooth device media channel or Bluetooth device call channel.
