No Edge 1050 Sounds in Bluetooth Connected Earbuds :(

Rob C
8 months ago

I have a brand new Edge 1050 and I cannot hear any of the sounds through my phone's Bluetooth connected earbuds. I can hear all sounds from my phone just fine. The Edge 1050 sounds (nav and tones) play through the Edge speaker, but not through my earbuds. The Edge and my phone are connected and all activities sync just fine. When I turn on my Edge I get a quick notification on the screen that says "Phone Connected". Also, in System>Sounds>Voice Prompts, I do have the Audio Output set to "Phone. And also to confirm, in my Connect App on phone, the Edge 1050 device shows Connected. When I select the Edge device in my Connect App on my phone and choose System>Settings>Sounds>Voice Prompts, my Audio output shows as "Phone" and I have the Navigation Alerts and Activity Alerts toggles set to the "On" positions.

I honestly don't know what else to do. I 100% want to be using my earbuds when cycling which means I need to be hearing my Edge sounds through my earbuds. I have a Varia connected as well so I need to be hearing those alerts in my earbuds too. 

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I did some searching and I didn't see where anyone else was having this issue with the Edge 1050, so it must be something I am doing wrong.

And to confirm, I have my Edge 1050 updated to the latest software version 9.11.

    You must switch the sound output to the mobile phone on Edge 1050
    Edge and mobile phone can only choose 1 out of 2

    As far as I can tell my plowing through the menus and Garmin Connect, radar sounds can not be routed through the headphones. Lap sounds, radar, etc are not shown in audio prompts.

    Where are you seeing a way to send all audio to the phone?

    Can you please describe in detail exactly where/how to do this? I think I have everything set the way it should be but I am hoping maybe I am missing something? Thanks for the help.

    Allow application permissions

    I had first tried changing that setting to "Phone" which you would think should be the proper setting to hear Edge sounds through your 'phone', and that does not work. Just to be certain I was not confused, I also tried changing the setting to "Device" like you describe in your post tjj1664, and that does not work for me either. Sounds continue to come from the Edge speaker only and nothing through my earbuds. That's why I am so confused.

    I just tested it and it is indeed the same as your situation
    There is currently another bug. Short press the power button (sleep), then short press the power button again (wake up).
    The backlight cannot be adjusted automatically at this time

    So are you able to get any sound through your earbuds tjj1664? Am I the only one with this issue? It seems like such a major issue that I would be seeing many posts about this, but it seems I am the only one who has posted?

    My airpods can’t hear the voice from Edge either

    I tried switching the sound output and then pressing the record/stop button. The Edge 1050 successfully delivered sound to my AirPods.

    step
    1. Switch to device
    2. Leave the sound setting page
    3. Press the record/stop button

    Unfortunately that didn't work for me tjj1664. Glad to hear you got it working for you though.
