nRF audio DK reference application not visible to smartphone scan

[ermalh]

Hello,

I am evaluating the nRF5340 for a potential BLE audio application. I was able to program the kit following the instructions and using the build script (or through VScode), however the unit is not discoverable and I am not able to find it via bluetooth scan from my iphone or from my laptop. I am able to see the device using the mobile app "nRF Connect for Mobile" but this one shows issues as well when connecting to it. Is this something that anyone else has exhibited before?

Additionally (but less important for the purpose of my evaluation) it is not clear from the link https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/applications/nrf5340_audio/index.html how to program the unit to be a left/right channel or (if it is possible) to program it as duo when using VS code.

Thank you for your support!

Hi,

Thank you for sharing your project.

I have reported your issue internally. The issue seems to be already known on iOS devices. 

Could you provide your iPhone product details such as model number and iOS version?

Best regards,
Dejan

The model and iOS version are: iPhone13Pro iOS 17.4.1.

(Please note that I tried with my Dell laptop and with an iPhone15ProMax as well without success)

Thank you!

Hi Ermal,

As a short update, this issue might get fixed in the next NCS version.

Thank you for your patience.
