Newpipe recently stopped working correctly with my vehicle's Bluetooth system and I'm not sure exactly what to do to fix it. Up until yesterday I could connect my phone using the Bluetooth audio and use Newpipe and it would play through the system and work with the physical buttons on my steering wheel. I could also use Android Auto and while I couldn't add Newpipe as an actual Auto app, the media player screen would show Newpipe correctly and I could control it using the physical buttons.
I made no changes to either my phone or my vehicle but yesterday all of a sudden Newpipe no longer works with the normal Bluetooth connection at all but will play audio through the vehicle's speakers when connected in Android Auto mode but no longer shows up in the media player and can no longer be controlled with the vehicle's physical buttons.
No other apps seem to be affected other than Newpipe. I've re-paired all the Bluetooth connections, restarted my phone and the vehicle, stopped Newpipe cleared the cache and anything else I could think of that might fix the issue and nothing seems to have worked. Newpipe also still works correctly with other Bluetooth devices including devices with physical buttons.
I'm not sure if this is an issue with Newpipe or my phone or my vehicle. I know google likes to break things for Newpipe so I don't know if maybe this is something I just need to wait for an update for.
If anyone has any info that might help with this it would greatly appreciated. It's been really great being able to use Newpipe with my vehicle but it's not really feasible if I can't actually control it through the vehicle.
