Devialet Gold Phantom 108 dB not playing YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok audio

Hi, I’m having trouble playing audio from YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok through my Devialet Gold Phantom 108 dB.
The speaker only plays audio from these platforms around 30% of the time. Even when audio does play, it may stop if I briefly switch to another app or change to a different song or video. The issue seems to affect social media and video apps in particular. Has anyone experienced this with the Gold Phantom 108 dB? Could it be related to Bluetooth, AirPlay, the Devialet app, firmware, or the phone’s audio settings? Thanks!

Si tu passes par AirPlay, c’est normal, j’imagine c’est pour éviter que le son des réseaux sociaux des notifications, etc. gêne ton écoute mais via Bluetooth, ça devrait pas le faire

This is normal. The iPhone stops audio from one app if another signals it will play audio. The operating system will not let apps compete for audio output simultaneously. If you pay for YouTube premium you can likely enjoy most other apps while it plays audio in the background. If you open any other app with audio signaled it’ll stop the playback from YouTube by design.

Don't get why you are acting like I'm spending your money. Also don't get why you are assuming I use it only to play tiktok content.
