Q: Audio source randomly changes when in Carplay mode?
First, I don't think this is a Hyundai issue per se, but just wondering if anyone else can dupe this, or has seen/heard of it.
Second: I had something similar with my old head unit.
Scenario:
iPhone 6s, next to latest iOS update (I don't have the one they released like 2 days ago). Connect iPhone to Pioneer 4000 NEX head unit with iBolt docking cradle and lightning-USB cable. Head Unit detects carplay and Phone switches to Carplay mode. Access Carplay (doesn't matter how, button, Siri, etc.) Listen to Music or iHeart Radio.
Now, switch the head unit "source" to say, XM radio.
What happens: Randomly the head unit switches BACK to the USB/carplay interface. Or more accurately "something" is telling it to switch back.
At first I thought it was my Pioneer Head unit freaking out.
Scenario now:
Same iPhone 6s and iOS. Using the Amazon Basics lighting to USB cable this time, connected to 2017 Hyundai SFS with supposedly the latest firmware/whatever. You plug the phone in, and phone and Head Unit detect carplay. Do the same: Play music, or iheart Radio. Then switch (I think the "mode" button) to radio (FM/XM). Randomly, in the middle of things, it switches to Carplay.
In either case, if you do not access Carplay (ie, you plug phone in and it detect carplay, but you don't actually DO anything), you can switch to XM/Radio and things are fine. Never once kicks over to Carplay.
I googled and the closest I could find was a thread (maybe on Apple?) where people had this Ovana or something VPN thingy installed and that's what was making the phone switch. In this case, no VPN.
Here's the closest I could find:

Has anyone else ever seen this? It's very annoying.
The probability of two diff. USB cables being at fault seems highly unlikely. I'd *maybe* suspect the lightning port on the iPhone, but if I stay in Carplay mode (ie: actively listening to music or iHeart radio) it's fine.
Oh, and why is there no Carplay forum? or Carplay category?
iPhone 6s, iOS 9.3.3
