Hi Seighard and thanks so much.
I followed your steps and it went exactly like you said it would.
But...as soon as I lauched the Go Paymend app everything went
silent. Clearly this is an app issue and not a card reader
issue. Looks like I'll just have to wait for the fix, but it
wasn't for lack of trying.
Thank you again.
Kim

Hi Kim,
First of all, I seem to remember that not all headphone splitters
are
created equal so there may very well be some out there that would
work for
you, but as I said, I am not sure. I actually just saw one today
in an email
from NCIX.com, it's one from Monster and it's not cheap at
$24.95, vut it
states specifically it works for iPhones, iPads etc. and it even
has
independent volume controls for the 2 ports.
Now, as for Bluetooth, I just tried this with my stereo bluetooth
headset
and the wired earpods. I have never used the Go Payments card
reader, but I
don't see why it should be different as it's all a matter of
priority. So,
here is what I just did:
1. I turned on Bluetooth.
2. I started playing an audio book in the Audible app on speaker.
3. I turned on my bluetooth headset which had already been paired
with my
iPhone. After a moment the audio switched from the external
speaker to the
bluetooth headset. This is automatic and should work like that
with your
bluetooth headset.
4. I then plugged in my wired earpods which should mimic you
plugging in
your Go Payment card reader. As expected the audio stopped on my
bluetooth
headset and it switched back to the wired earpods, in your case I
am not
sure where the audio actually goes, but plugging in the card
reader into the
headphone jack does stop your audio, right?
5. I now turned my bluetooth headset off by holding the on/off
button until
it turned off. My audio continued to play on the earpod.
6. I waited a few seconds and turned my bluetooth headset back
on. I did
this while the audio book was playing on the earpods and I did
not unplug
them. Once my bluetooth headset turned on it took a second or 2
and the
audio automatically switched back to the bluetooth headset.
If this works the same way with the Go Payment card reader it
means that you
should be able to get Voiceover back to the bluetooth headset
this way. Once
again to sum it up:
1. Make sure bluetooth is on and turn on your headset so
Voiceover speaks on
the headset.
2. Plug in your card reader
3. Turn off your headset.
4. wait a few seconds and turn your bluetooth headset back on,
Voiceover
should be back on bluetooth.
Good luck, let me know if it worked.
Regards,
Sieghard
