Would this be the reason why when I last connected via Bluetooth to a Sony Docking station (basically a large speaker) VO was acting weird and for a while I was not getting sound out of either the speaker or the phone? I’ve never played with Air Play settings and am not clear as to how they

Hi Eileen, that's certainly possible. There are numerous audio-related bugs in iOS 9, some of them quite serious. So something has been changed with respect to the way VO processes audio, and perhaps it relates to this new audio destination function. Jonathan Mosen Mosen Consulting Blindness

Can I ask you to reconsider your need for a download manager? Safari already knows how to resume downloads if the server supports it, and using multiple connections to retrieve a file or files from a server is both inconsiderate and unlikely to produce meaningful results with today’s operating
