Bluetooth audio doesn't automatically connect

My iPhone always connect to the Bluetooth (telephone only) but audio never connects unless I manually connect. Is anyone experiencing the same issue?

I haven't checked music yet, but after updating my IOS to 11. my Escort Max2 does not connect with BT unless I delete it from the phone each time I start my car. So if you did upgrade your iPhone to the latest firmware, I would blame that.

What year is your F10?

Earlier models disable the BT connection if you plug the phone in to a charger cable connected to the usb socket in the armrest. Even if you are just charging the phone and not using it to stream music. Mine does this and I have to enable the function again in the telephone settings, later models don’t behave in the same manner
