For some odd reason the GS3 seems to still play sounds (rings, notifications, etc) on the device as well as the BT headset when connected; causing an unecessary echo. On all my previous devices, all sounds were directed to the headset. Any way to change this? Couldn't find it under Settings.

I'm experiencing the same problem but I'd like to broaden the scope.
My Bose MIE2I's are plugged into the 3.5mm slot not BT and do not receive the notifications, nor do they work for speaking through the phone and listening to the other party on the call.
I'm used to them not controlling my multimedia and voice control as per my GSII but their functionality being constricted on a higher model phone perplexes me.

Have you try application name BT mono? search in Google play. try that application. it pretty much make your BT headset as output sound. So music notification can play through BT headset
For Bluetooth- turn on the device and find it in the Bluetooth settings. Then click on the wheel beside it and check both vocal and media audio.
same issue here.. driving my nuts..
want all rings notifications etc in the earpiece only.
I want to mute my phone and have all sound routed 100% to the earpiece.

I know this is an old topic, but I was searching for a solution for the exact same issue and thought I'd add my .02 cents here as well.
Anyone come up with a solution to this yet?

I use my phone to stream music to my car's stereo, and when I get a notification of any sort, it plays from my phone and then echoes through my car's speakers. This is rather annoying and I can't find a workaround. If I put my phone on vibrate when I enter the car, then I get no noise from either, and I'd never know if I missed a message or something. Just wondering if anyone has a method to force notification sounds through one audio output or another, not both.

JVC KDX50BT is my stereo, if that makes any difference

I would also like to know this. I have a bluetooth speaker at work and a bluetooth car stereo. When listening to music, it is annoying to hear the music cut out and play a notification for an e-mail or SMS message.
Have You guys tried to set notifications volume to none? There are surely plenty of programs that change the phone profile after for e.g. connecting to bluetooth device.

Did some searching, and didn't find an answer/solution to my problem: Every time I connect my Bluetooth headset to my phone, it enables Media Audio, even though I repeatedly disable it in the settings. Has anyone found a way to permanently disable Media Audio? I don't want anything but phone calls routed to the headset. As a matter of fact, when it's connected (and Media Audio is enabled) all notifications and ringtones are routed to the headset, so if I'm not wearing the headset (and I'm not right next to my phone) I don't hear it ring. Once Media Audio is disabled, it rings from the phone.
I use the "Autostarts" app. You should be able to disable that using it.

that's weird. Even if I have media going through the BT, the phone rings/notifications come through both the phone speaker and the headset.

If you have it, can you tell me if it's possible to disable it using the app? Even though it's only $1.50 for the app, I'm not keen on spending the money for it, if it won't fix my problem.

Mine behaved normally up until recently. Now, Media Audio must be unchecked for rings and notifications to sound from the handset.

I have the same exact problem... Did you ever find a solution?

Nope. I even installed Autostarts (as previously suggested) and have had no luck in changing the behavior.
Hey all,
Ive tried about a dozen "mono" apps and have found nothing that will do what I want. I have also tried the Droid Incredible and my current phone the GS3. I have a 2011 BMW and for some reason they didnt include a2dp in their stereo system. Nothing I do will force the stereo to play music or notifications, or read out lout texts through the car speakers. The only thing that will go through is phone calls.
HOWEVER, Ive accidentally discovered something interesting. If I am on a call through bluetooth in the car and navigating at the same time, the navigation voice will come through the cars speakers as well.
So what I need is something to trick the car into thinking my phone is on a call, thus triggering the bluetooth to transmit phone sounds through the speakers, this way I can use a text message reader, music, whatever.
So the app/hack would need to emulate whatever the phone does with bluetooth signals when it starts a call. All sounds the phone makes should go to bluetooth.....which it seems like its already doing while on a call.
Thanks to anyone who responds. Mod: If there is a better place for this, feel free to move it.

I have a lexus that also for whatever reason doesnt have A2DP supported, there is a app called BTMONO that will make your radio think your phone is in a call and will transmit sound. However it is mono tone so if you are doing it for music it will not be your best bet.
I am still looking for something that will play music in stereo without the A2DP

I am working on this now for the SoundAbout app.
Tried searching and I could not find any other threads relating to this topic. I am trying to trick my car (Lexus) bluetooth into playing music. It does not have A2DP. Has anyone come up with a way to do this? Has anyone been able to do this with the SoundAbout app ?
It worked !!! I just tried an ap called "blue2car" on my iphone . .... I own a 2006 Bmw 530xi . ... damn , I wish I would have found this app 8 years ago ... it cost 10.99 but it is worth it ......
i have been using XZU for over a month now but one thing bugs me a lot, whenever i call and talk via using out of box earphones, i can distincly hear the background sound myself and somehow instead of cancelling that background sound, its amplies it and send it to the other end, ive heard many of my callers tell me that they cant hear my voice as the background sound is a lot when im not in such a noisy atmosphere.
anybody else has faced this issue? any idea whats wrong and how i can solve it?
I am experiencing exactly the same issue. The headset picks up all the background noise when I am having a call, and it is annoying because I can't hear clearly what my caller is saying.... I'm sure it is a bug... Am on software update 532 and this is really bugging me

In settings/call settings there are some tick boxes you can try:
Hearing aids
microphone noise suppression
speaker voice enhancement
If they don't work then it must be a hardware issue. (ear piece with mic)
Personally I've never used the headphone set. I use the SBH-52 bluetooth unit

I confirm the same problem does not exist in Bluetooth headset but it only happens when you use a wired headset like the Sony MH750 supplied in the box. I have tried using other wired headsets and the same problem exist - your earphone just plays also the sounds that are received in the microphone so you are not only hearing the caller but you are also hearing your own voice as well as the noises of the surrounding environment.... really really annoying.
When connected to a bluetooth headset, no matter "what" ROM i'm using, it seems to not ring to the phone. I've used all the apps that are supposed to redirect sound and they don't work well at all.
Thoughts?
Same issue here.
