iPhone11 and Alpine CDE-175BT

Okay heres the issue. I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max running IOS 14.4. I just bought an Alpine CDE-175BT head unit for my car. Bluetooth works almost like it should. I can listen to music. It downloads my contacts. But heres the catch, the Alpine microphone does not work when I try and use it for phone calls. I can here them thru the car speakers but they only here what sounds like a drill. I am seeing others having issues with Car Play due to the 14 and above updates. Any ideas?

Speech to text not working while connected to blue tooth in my Tesla Speech to text works fine on my iPhone when I am not connected to my Tesla (using my phone as a key to the car). However, once I connect to the car after pressing the speech to text button in the messaging app (or any other app) it appears that the microphone is not receiving any input when I speak. Additionally, dictating texts via the car into the phone seems to work. i have tried the following with no luck: turned Bluetooth on and off on my phone restarted my phone unpaired my phone from the car and reset the phone as the car key Just updated to ios16 have the latest version of s/w on my tesla Can someone help?

CarPlay microphone not working properly on iOS16 on iPhone 14 ProMax I have two iPhone 14 Pro Maxes that I got last week that are running iOS 16. Since upgrading my phones, when I connect to either of my cars (both Subarus) via Apple cable to CarPlay and make a call, the caller can barely hear me. Prior to upgrade, I had an iPhone 11 Pro Max and an iPhone 12 Pro Max using CarPlay in these same vehicles using the same cables and people could hear me clear as ever. Actually, I was always very impressed at how clearly the microphone picked up and filtered out background noise. So is this problem iOS 16? Or is it the iPhone 14 Pro Maxes? I’ve not tested to see if it’s using the phone’s microphone or not. I just know that I sound like I’m VERY far away from the mic and very quiet. If I’m on a call and unplug from CarPlay or just tap my speakerphone button, they can hear me perfectly fine. So I don’t think it’s using my phone’s microphone… or if it is, it’s using it in regular phone mode, not speakerphone mode. I make many calls from the car, so this is not good! I also had Subaru update my head unit (factory) to the latest version just to ensure it wasn’t something with my car. But it’s happening with two phones, two cars, so I think we can say it’s definitely the phones/iOS.

IK Multimedia IRIG noise problem after IOS upgrade on iPhone 12 Pro I have a problem when using the following setup: (a) iPhone 12 Pro running IOS 16 (from the first to the latest 16.2) (b) Tonebridge app (c) IK Multimedia iRIG device + Lightning to 3.5mm jack convertor (d) Gibson lead guitar When playing the samples from tone-bridge, sound is perfect. When playing the guitar however, sound is crackly. It was perfect before IOS 16 (Same setup). Same setup works fine using Android phone insteat of iPhone. I posted under a different title - and got a few people posting similar issues. Does anyone know if this issue is sorted, or perhaps if Apple is releasing an update to solve this?
