so i'm on s20 plus android 12 ui 4.1

 

i mess up tonight  i cast my phone to tv aka smart view well i did have  in categories the following smart things notifications general notifications audio  output which was turn on

 

well when i did that smart view i didn't see that audio output top of screen on my phone i should had try to turn it on and off but instead i clear data<-now i did open up smart thing app and exit thinking might come up the word audio output drop down on phone before i clear data smart things btw

 

apprently i can't seem to figure out someway to get that audio output notification to show in others notification category on phone because i'm just seeing other 2 and that's it  

 

i had in past done this numerous times clear data and wait it finally comes up but this time it's not i do recall old app there was a smart thing control panel thus if you accidently turn off audio output you can turn it back on

 

umm is there anyway i can get this back or does it actually don't exist anymore android 12 ui 4.1? kindof wished i should had just turn on and off audio  output notification in smart things  to see come up on phone or not i still can't believe that i can no longer get notification to show up used to in the past meh

 

now i did read this over at reddit  somebody posted 4 days ago

has anyone noticed that after the updated to 4.1 these are gone? The ones I am referring to are the persistent notifications when a Bluetooth audio device is connected. There used to be the option from the notification panel to select the audio output for an app when a Bluetooth audio device is connected. Sadly it is gone now.

 

another person wrote That is what I thought also, but that notification category is no longer there.

 

i did go into 4.1 last friday but i still had audio output notification, an hour ago i did like get an email from smart things screenshot and such wanted logs am not sure why i never to them

they did say uninstall and reinstall smart things however i never done that before i don't set up smart things all i do smart view cast ddp app to roku tv it comes out and  i click on smart things app and exit which should bring up audio output notification in which if i wanted to select audio on phone or tv<-it's on tv sound by default

 

i'm little nervous about uninstall and reinstall smart things app  because what folks said about audio output no longer on their devices since going into ui 4.1 

 

perhaps i should had restart phone before clear smart things data then click on smart things after cast ddp app phone to roku device see came up  on phone or toggle on and off that notification i didn't know unlike in past clear data restart wait a few hours or so audio output will appear but apprently it no longer exist ui 4.1 anymore 

 

i could try to like install  an old smart things apk that might have smart things notification panel thing but not sure will work i mean it's not a big deal whether or not audio output notification comes up after you have on bluetooth since i always leave it on audio tv by default but i would like to see it come up right after i do smart view cast phone to tv dangit

Uninstall the old Smartthings app and then install the old version from here:

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/samsung-smartthings-samsung-connect/samsung...

The notification will pop up again upon connection of a Bluetooth audio device (I had to toggle mine off and on to get the notification to display initially.) Thanks all for the solution!
