I've done some searching on this one, but yet to find a solution that works.
I don't use the stock Music app that comes with iPhone. In the car I generally stream either Pandora or Spotify. This works fine over Bluetooth. But I'm trying to see if there is a way to use USB instead as I usually have my phone charging as I drive anyway, and other benifits would be slightly better audio quality compared to Bluetooth and USB audio can start playing sooner, rather than waiting for Bluetooth to startup/contacts sync etc.
What happens at the moment is, when the phone is connected to USB, it sees it as an iPOD and directly accesses and starts playing from my local "MUSIC APP" library. If I then start Pandora or Spotify, it attempts to start streaming the song (infact I hear it for just a second) before it force switches back to the MUSIC APP.
Even if I close the MUSIC app (which stops playback), as soon as I hit play in Pandora/Spotify I only hear for a second before it switches to audio from MUSIC App.
Anyone found a workaround?
