I wonder if MLB supports Airplay but not Bluetooth? That would seem odd
though that the Echo makes VO go quiet. It might not be able to handle more
than one thing, as even Alexa's voice doesn't speak over anything, and Apple
doesn't have the way to do it like that where it pauses to speak. There's
probably something about the Bluetooth in the Echo the phone might not like.
It's too bad Amazon doesn't add Airplay, as I'm sure the hardware can do it,
they just don't want to work with Apple for anything except the app itself,
which they kind of have to.

Subject: Amazon Echo and the iPhone
Just got my Amazon Echo today, and have read on the list that certain things
for the Echo do not work with VoiceOVer. It took awhile and some frustration
but I finally got it to connect to my wifi network.I wanted to see if anyone
found any works arounds for these two things. One I connected my iPhone via
bluetooth to the Echo, but this completely knocked out VoiceOVer, congrats
to Amazon for making the first bluetooth speaker that does not work with VO.
Can anyone get their iPhone VO to play over the Echo? I want to pair it so I
can listen to MLV At Bat games through the echo. The other thing I noticed
is there is no way to delete items that you have added to your to do list
and shopping list. I tried clicking the delete button both on the iPhone app
and then on safari on th emac, but instead of deleting items it just kept
swapping the item I clicked delete from one list to the other so taking a
item on the shopping list and instead of deleting it moved it to the to do
list. The button next to delete is move to the other list so obviously some
kind of a focus issue. If anyone has had any luck with any of this please do
let us know. Thanks,
