Phone will connect to headphones but not play audio through them.


I have the same issue with a pair of headphones and a different brand of earphones, my iPhone will connect to them via Bluetooth but will not play sound through them. I can use the buttons on the devices to pause or play music but my phone will only play sound through it's speaker.

Please help :/

iOS 26.1
