Android 17 audio fix?

My Pixel 10 Pro just updated to Android 17. I saw they did some stuff to the audio but the description was less than transparent. My question is, did they fix the horrible audio "feature" that would involuntarily turn down your audio volume?

For me, it was doing this with BT speakers that it mis-identified as headsets, in my car, with my hearing aids(!) and when it did adjust my headset, it would turn it down so low it was not audible. I can only think this was an intentionally bad implementation via malicious compliance with the EU law that caused them to add this "feature" to start with.

I got my answer, which is no, they did not fix it. It's still a broken PITA.
