I have a rushing sound or static sound when my iphone is paired to my Phonak Audeo hearing aids. This is present when streaming audio or making a phone call. Changing from Adaptive bandwidth to Fixed bandwidth does not make any difference. Turning "Hearing Aid Compatibility" ON or OFF in Settings/Accessibility/Hearing Devices does not make any difference. I have the latest IOS (16.6).
I stumbled across this, which seems to work. It uses the iPhone MyPhonak app, and is easiest if you use the the iPhone Picture-in-Picture (PIP).
a. Enable PIP in iPhone Settings/General/Picture in Picture/Start PIP Automatically
b. While streaming a CNN video, switch to the MyPhonak app.
c. You will be in a MyPhonak program called “Bluetooth streaming + mic”
d. Click on “Ambient balance” at the bottom of the screen, and then adjust the balance to be more Audio and less Surroundings (see screen snaps below).
NOTE: The program “Bluetooth streaming + mic” is not otherwise available from the MyPhonak interface. However, the adjustment is retained and the annoying static or rushing sound is eliminated from iPhone audio.
