cortana will not work with anything connected via bluetooth on windows 8.1 nokia 1520 phone

Bluetooth can be on and with no devices connected via Bluetooth Cortana works no problem. But as soon as you connect a device Cortana will do nothing, either by voice or by typing. You do get the typing box and if you press the mic symbol you get a message saying "listening" but nothing happens. The phone has a build date of 7/2/14 and was bought 9/27/14. Has latest OS. I'm assuming Cortana should work with or without a Bluetooth device connected. This problem is happening in my house. Have not checked to see if problem is also occuring in my car. Wife has car and not home.

Under advanced Bluetooth options, try turning on "use an alternative Bluetooth audio option for speech" and reconnect. It worked for me on a new BMW Bluetooth system
