Common Issues

πŸ”‡ No Audio / Very Quiet Audio

Solution:

  • Check that your USB adapter is firmly connected (see compatible adapters)
  • Increase the Input Gain slider (especially for Sonos adapter)
  • Verify your Bluetooth headphones are paired and connected
  • Check the IFE system volume (it should be at a reasonable level)
  • Try unplugging and reconnecting the USB adapter

🎧 Bluetooth Headphones Not Selected

Important: Bluetooth headphone selection is controlled through your iPhone or iPad's system settings, NOT through the IFE Bridge app.

Solution:

  • Open your device's Settings β†’ Bluetooth and select your headphones from the list
  • If you still have no audio, tap the Advanced menu icon (top right corner of IFE Bridge)
  • Check the Audio Output Selection - does it show your Bluetooth headphones?
  • If it shows a different device (like iPhone speaker or another audio device), go back to Settings β†’ Bluetooth on your phone or iPad and select your headphones
  • Remember: You cannot change audio output from within the IFE Bridge app - it must be done through your device's Bluetooth settings

⚠️ USB Input Not Detected

Solution:

  • Unplug and replug the adapter
  • Try a different USB-C to 3.5mm adapter
  • Restart your device with the adapter connected
  • Check that your adapter supports audio input (not all adapters do)
  • Try cleaning the USB-C or Lightning port on your device

πŸ“Ά Audio Stuttering / Dropouts

Solution:

  • Increase buffer size in Advanced Settings (Settings icon β†’ Advanced)
  • Ensure your Bluetooth headphones are charged
  • Keep your device close to your headphones (within 3 feet)
  • Close other apps that might be using audio
  • Restart both your device and Bluetooth headphones

πŸ”Š Crackling / Distortion

Solution:

  • Check if the Input Level meter is hitting 100% (clipping)
