If you’re not yet using Android Auto with your car, what in the world are you waiting for? We are big fans of Google’s solution for getting our favorite apps and services playing nicely with our vehicles, putting convenient access to Maps, our favorite music, and more, right on the dash. Of course, the flip side to liking something that much is that you’re going to feel that sting all the more acutely when Android Auto isn’t working, which is exactly the situation a bunch of users find themselves in right now.
A small but growing contingent of Android Auto users has been taking to Google’s support forum to share reports of losing audio output after installing the new December Pixel Drop on their phones (via 9t05Google). Obviously, they’re all running Pixel phones, and the issue has been spotted on models ranging from the Pixel 6 through Pixel 9 series.
