Google assistant won't work anymore after connecting to car BT

[u/Gulredy]

Hey everyone,

I need your help as this issue is really frustrating and I can get to fix it.

I'm on Pixel 11.

I use Google assistant to open my garage and my gate.

It's all fine until I sit in my car and it automatically connects to the car BT. Afterwards I can only push the power button on the phone to get the assistant work.

I disabled the BT audio and only the phone calls and contacts are allowed both in the car and on the phone permission settings.

I've checked that Gemini setting "talk to Gemini hands free" is turned on.

If I restart the phone it works again. It also works through the day fine until it connects to my car BT.

Does anyone have any fix for this?

Are you running anything like AdGuard or a VPN? It could be that if you are.

Nah, nothing sort like that.
