ZUMO XT pairing with N-Com B601X

[Dalriada1912]

Has anyone tried pairing a Garmin Zumo XT with the Nolan N-Com B601X? Although I can get it to pair after a fashion, I can only get instructions from the GPS but no music. All firmware is up to date. Any suggestions?

Usually the XT should be paired as a phone instead of a GPS if you want to use the music player. That enables the A2DP Bluetooth profile which allows stereo music. Pairing as a GPS usually results in a mono Hands Free profile. Try clearing the pairings and start over.

Thanks, you're a lifesaver. I had noted that I got both music and instructions when paired as the primary phone but not as the secondary phone. The instruction manual is quite clear that the GPS should only be connected as the secondary phone. I assumed that this was going to be a major issue. I had contacted the dealer, the importer and Garmin and none of them could suggest a solution. In short, the manual is wrong. In this case the old saying should be, "when all else fails, IGNORE the instructions"
Thanks again for your advice which I shall pass on.

So what exactly steps did you take? Thanks, I'm in the same situation as you... Do you now receive both music and GPS info from the XT?
