Over the past few weeks I've noticed that the navigation instructions from Waze or Google Maps thru Android Auto are permanently choppy, or broken (only get some of the instructions), or delayed (music audio lowers, no audio nav instructions, then some audio nav instructions start just as the music resumes to normal level), or all 3!

It happens on both mine and my wife's Samsung Galaxy S22 Android phones. I have tried rebooting the phones, deleting the Bluetooth pairings in the car and recreating them, rebooting the Smart infotainment system (holding the power button for 10 seconds), but the problem persists.

Before I report this to Smart support, has anyone else seen this behaviour?

In my car, the instructions are affected by the use of the indicators. Turning on the indicators means that the indicator warning sound is preferred to the navigation instructions. Once the indicator turns off, the instructions are returned to normal.

iirc you can set the volume prefs of the various sound sources.
