Forerunner 255 Music - Audio notifications confusing since update 15.19

Hello all, 

I would like to see if the community shared the same experience as me since the software upgrade 15.19 in regards to the audio notifications while running.

I'm using a Forerunner 255 Music connected to Bose Sports earbuds.

Here is what I noticed: 

  • The lap count (every km) does not mention the lap number anymore, only "1 lap" and gives the stats. Before it was like "Lap 5", "Lap 16" and the stats. I found it pretty useful.
  • The 5 beeps at the end of the each cycle while doing workouts (to warn that the next cycle will start) cannot be heard in the earbuds anymore, only comes from the watch itself. This is pretty inconvenient.

Those 2 points are not super critical, but this feels a lot like a regression (or maybe it's now hidden in the menus somewhere but I couldn't find it).

Even though there were minor cosmetic sound improvements (like the bips to start, turn left/right,etc, are fancier), this is really meager compared to the loss of useful features.

Does someone face this same kind of issues ?

Thanks

Philippe

PS: Unlike other posts in the forum, I still can listen to the music correctly, no impact here.
