Hi all!

I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to this, but hoping maybe I've just missed something obvious.

I have a bluetooth audio receiver built into the headunit in my car which I use to play music from my phone. Works great, no issues here. The problem is when I then try to connect to a bluetooth handsfree device. It seems I can only use one of these devices....either music and calls go through the headunit, or both go through the handsfree. Ideally, i'd like music to go to one and voice calls etc to go through the other......so, is this possible?

I know this can be done on android by selecting the connected accessory and picking which device to send music to and which to send voice to, just seems unfortunate to not have similar functionality here, unless i'm just missing it somewhere.

Ta!

In BT settings there should be a option about enabling BT alternative channel for voice
 
I've had a look at that option - "Use an alternative Bluetooth audio connection for Speech". All that appears to do as far as the headunit is concerned is whenever I enable cortana or there's a spoken voice from the phone (maps etc) it switches to a phone call channel with lower quality audio. If I select the handfree from the list it still pairs up both audio and voice.
