Windows Media can not play music without bluetooth headset

[zeroxp]

my phone is a HTC touch cruise, WindowsMobile6.1.

it was no problem playing mp3 music before. i got a bluetooth stereo headset recently, and i connected it with the phone and tried play music via the headset and it worked. but after i turn off the headset windows media cannot play music any more. it always popup with this 'Unspecified error' message. i tried soft reset the phone but still cannot play. and when i connected the headset again it worked with the bluetooth again.

the interesting thing is if i put the mp3 into application data\sounds, then i can play it in notification setting preview without blutooth.

how can i get the player working without the bluetooth headset? i guess this may because the player still try to play via bluetooth while it is disconnected, but how can i set it back to normal?:(

THis is a wierd problem i havent heard before.

I use Sony bluetooth headphones with my t cruise with now problems at all. The only bitch was having to go thru settings/connections etc to connet them, which i solved using a2dp toggle switch (see my post).

As for your problem, mm wierd. You say ur using wm6.1, so obviously a cooked rom yes?? what rom are you using? I havent flashed my cruise yet as i am waiting for the official wm6.1 from htc to come out first to try and compare.

This is probably a bug in your cooked rom. From my understanding of a2dp drivers it is only turned on when bluetooth headset is connected. When the headphones are off, the driver is not on meaning u should be able to use media player normally (or am i talking shit??:D)

You might be in for a hard reset......

Let me know how u got on please.

looks like a2dp is not turning off after disconnecting the bluetooth headset. If it was me I would hard reset and try again. if the problem comes back, try a different rom.

the rom was put in by seller when i got the phone,, i'm still new to the WinMobile, don't know how to load the rom again. i installed the TCPMP now, it seems working ok. i'll try some other headset and see how it goes..
