Android Auto (r63) audio volume behaviour

MattyS · Mar 27, 2025

I was just taking a brief drive to test out my new Cross Climate 2 tyres, and whilst listening to my Spotify, I heard a "ding!" warning noise and the volume dropped significantly despite the media volume remaining constant. I know that when I'm listening via headphones to my phone that sometimes it warns me the volume is too high and I have to manually override it....is this the same thing?

It's a bug. I have it often on my Trophy ER.
The level comes up after "something" has happened. So do not increase volume whilst too low, or you will be in for a surprise when that "something" happens!

interesting, thanks! Any idea what that "something " might be or is it any notification?

I have the Same issues, it is a Bug which was as well in R46 and now in R63. In My Case it is a notification from the internal NAV (Schoolzone ahead) which lowers Volume but forgets to reset, same with Low Battery warning. In this Case you can Pause Music and Play again and Volume is Back to normal. I disabled now all warnings from internal NAV, i also do not use it for Navigation.
