Audio prompts cause music to stop

Does anyone else have an issue where music stops after a lap alert audio prompt? I've had this happen using all recent software versions. I've only had it happen late in longer runs (after 6 miles), and not on every long run. It might be happening when the audio prompt coincides with the end of a song. It isn't a major problem - I can open the music settings and press play, and the music resumes. I'm using "My Music" and Powerbeats Pro headphones. I saw a similar issue discussed on a 2-year old thread about the Garmin 645.

Audio prompts are gone for me completely, using 245m. My music on Spotify remains playing

I have this same issue with my 945, it started a week ago and have to manually start the music playing again. It's frustrating and I can't find a solution anywhere online. I've checked the audio prompts section and there are no options that seem relevant.

the solution is simple, use your mobile phone to listen music and audio prompts via Garmin Connect together, with this i never had a prob and of course, it's not frustating

Not sure you're understanding the problem, or I'm not understanding what you're suggesting. I do use the audio prompts via Garmin connect and music both through my mobile phone while I run. The problem is that the audio prompt every mile stops the music entirely and I have to manually restart it. I'd prefer like before that the audio prompt just pause the music for 5 seconds while it says my pace, then the music goes back to playing automatically.

yes, i use it over mobile phone, because over FR945 it sucks and i am sure it won't fixed very soon

sadly - the more I use the 945 - the more I agree. There is so many things broken and things which should work but don't - its really questioning the price I paid for it.

To add to Robtastic84 comment - I'm on FW 4.11 and my audio prompts don't stop the music, but then I have other audio issues
