A SERIOUS issue with Bluetooth connectivitiy

[Paramount X]

I have the Tmobile Variant.
My setup is Plantronics Voyager 5200 (call audio only)
Logitech UE Megaboom (media only)
What? After making a call the music doesn't play on the BT speaker but plays on phone.

How? I have Pandora playing, I received a phone call or make a phone call and sometimes getting a notification from Hangouts too, somehow drops the MEDIA ability of the speaker and it reverts to my phones speaker. Even though I still see that the BT speaker is connected. I had SoundAbout on, so I disabled that, it still happened. Outloud as well.

Can anyone confirm that this is happening to them as well.

Its easy replicated. Just get a headset and a speaker. have one for media and one for phone calls and it should mess up like it does for me

I just tried it, and it worked as expected. It was a bit more difficult to get the phone to believe I wanted the split setup than I recall from the Note 2. I am to be able to end up variously with multiple devices connected for either call or media audio, and sometimes the media audio disappearing into the ether. However, once connected correctly, I had Pandora playing on an Exogear speaker, and took a phone call on Motorola P311 headset. Once the call ended, Pandora resumed on the speaker. I don't have Outloud or SoundAbout.

Freaking weird..I'll update teh post if I can recreate, cause apparently I can't...

Ok, So apparently its an app doing it, related to SoundAbout actually

I even installed SoundAbout and OutLoud and did multiple calls. No problem. On the other hand, both look like good apps, and I'm enjoying some Pandora which I usually don't turn on at the office.
