How to Change Audio Output in Pixel 7/Pro

In this guide, we will show you the steps to change the audio output on your Pixel 7 Pro. The devices from the silicon Valey giant do manage to checkmark most of the prerequisites, however, there are still some minor yet crucial features that are still missing. These include the incapability to unlock the device after typing in the correct PIN without pressing the Enter key or the fact that the Clear All button in recent apps is present at the extreme left rather than the bottom.

And now, you could add another entry to this list- the inability to change the audio output on your Pixel 7 Pro. Let’s supposed, you are listening to a song via car speakers by connecting your Pixel to your car via Bluetooth. Then you receive WhatsApp audio and you want to listen to that audio on your device, rather than the car speakers.

However, you wouldn’t be able to do so on the go, rather you will first have to disconnect your device from the car, and only then will the audio play on your phone. This is in stark contrast to other devices, such as OnePlus, which allows you to switch the audio output on the go.

Taking the above case as an example, as soon as you received the WhatsApp audio, you just need to bring up the Volume menu, tap on the audio switcher icon and then select the desired output source. However, this functionality is nowhere to be found on devices from Google. With that said, there does exist a nifty workaround that might help you change the audio output on your Pixel 7 Pro. So without further ado, let’s check out how this could be carried out.
