    Hi,
    I have googled and read lots of forums about this but couldn't find any solution yet.
    I have a Sena BT Headset and want Tasker to "Say" Caller name when phone rings. This is easy without Headset, but when ringing, the headset plays its own ringtone and not allows any "say" stream coming from tasker to play over. (Headset supports HSP, HFP, A2DP, AVRCP profiles and phone audio, media audio are checked under device BT settings)
    I have tried all streams of "say" action; also tried to enable AV "headset sound redirect", nothing worked.
    Is there a way to do it?

    Unfortunately, I believe we are out of luck. I fought with this issue for weeks trying to figure it out but was unable to. The problem is with the BT earpiece itself. If it has it's own built-in " ringtone" or way of handling calls when they initiate, and no way of disabling that function is supplied by the manufacturer, then there doesn't seem to be a way around it.
