Howdy wavstaff,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

The quoted section of the article below may explain why your car stereo isn’t playing sound from your iPhone when third-party apps are open.

Third-party audio apps

Some car stereos play audio from third-party apps in iPod/USB mode and some use a separate application. Please refer to your stereo's user guide for more information.

Take care,
-Jason

Many thanks Jason,
My car stereo only works in ipod/usb mode when the iphone is connected to the USB port of the stereo.
This issue seems to be related to iOS and not to my car stereo.
Not happening with my old iPhone 4S with iOS 7.xx
Thanks again
