CarPlay - No spoken Audio directions on Apple Maps

[brumey]

I wonder if anyone is experiencing this. Using Apple Maps (up to date iOS). I connect before starting the car. After about 20 seconds, it's on the screen. If I enter a route and start driving, I only get on screen directions. If I tap the screen a speaker icon comes up on the middle right side of the map screen. I tap the icon (unmuting I think) and I get no spoken directions. The next day I repeat and no spoken directions again until I tap the screen and tap thew speaker icon. It's like it defaults to off and not the last state it was in.

If I use seri for an address, I do get audio, its just the spoken directions seems to default to muted.

If anyone has a fix or can confirm its an known issue, I can live with it.

Thanks in advance....

Probably an audio or volume setting on the vehicle itself (check all the options for this)

I found the onscreen button to unmute on the carplay map screen, as stated in my initial post. The issue is, it seems to default to off for spoken directions . All other audio works including streaming from the iphone, siri, etc.

I had a similar issue with Waze. Its working now but honestly cant say why other than i think my phone was on mute. I googled toyota navigation no sound and just followed a bunch of recommendations regarding settings.

Interesting though. I will test with iPhone muted going into car and not.

Thank You.
