Hello,
I was quite shocked when I just wanted to send an Audible book to my Airport Express which is connected to my Sonos system. I was using my wife's iPod Touch and at first Airplay was not even an option in Control Centre. It also appears that Audible has finally followed Apple's lead and taken it out of the app which means the only way to activate Airplay is via the Control Centre. So, I rebooted the iPod Touch Fifth Gen which I recently upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and then Airplay was there. I selected Sonos and was shocked to find that Voiceover was sent to Sonos along wit hthe stream from Audible. This was definitely not the case before the iOS 8.0.2 upgrade and if Apple has indeed messed this up we are back to where we were when Airplay was first introduced which I think was in iOS 5. Just as it was back then the reaction time between swiping or touching something and it being announced via Airplay is about 4 seconds. absolutely terrible. I have been trying to play something via Airplay on my iPhone 5S, but can't even get the Airplay option to show up in Control Centre. OK, now I did another reboot of my iPhone and was able to select Airplay and with great relief I am finding that Voiceover remains on the device and is responsive. However, another reboot of the iPod Touch Fifth Gen still sends Voiceover to the Airplay device which really is not good. The Voiceover sounds and other click and systems sounds play on the device so I assume this is definitely a bug. I will have to write to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> about this. As I said, maybe whoever has an Airplay device can do some checking especially if you own multiple devices such as an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.
