I understand this topic has been covered in numerous threads and trust me, I follow them closely. But it seems they have all died and I still can't seem to find an answer to this. Once again, let me reiterate the symptom:

Pandora app on my phone goes into accessory mode as Pandora app is loaded on the car. No audio is heard from car although song is obviously playing as stated by the song timer. Switch over to bluetooth audio and proceed to hear audio that was intended for Pandora... Anyone else experiencing this? Any known solutions yet?

Yes, I believe this affects all Android phones. The service manager at my dealer showed me that it works fine with his iPhone, so it seems to be an issue with the Android port of the Pandora app. Let Pandora know that it is broken:

Yea I read that too, I just find it strange how it was actually working at one point upon receipt of the car.

The app has updated several times since I've had my car. I suppose you could search for older versions and side load them to see if an older version works correctly.

Must be the shitty infotainment then, cause mine hasn't changed a single version. Can't wait till they push out an update..

I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 and I notice that I have the no sound issue when I start my car with the USB drive plugged in. Once I unplug the USB drive and restart my car, Pandora App on the car works fine.

Hopefully they'll fix the issue soon without this workaround.

I second that! I read this thread today and after pulling my USB drive Pandora is working for the first time since I got my EXT. Now it's 100%. I love this Civic community!

Pretty unlikely. It only affects Android, not iPhones. When I showed it to my dealer, the service rep tested with his iPhone, and seriously told me to just get an iPhone.
