Desktop Phantom Ringing - Calls you cannot answer

Modified on Tue, 6 Jun, 2023 at 4:51 PM

If you're using your desktop computer you may experience ringing with no call showing on your screen. This can happen if you're using Bluetooth headsets or earphones. Some earbuds have a resume function for media, much like you have for netflix tab , BBC iplayer, if you put the earbuds on it will start playback without clicking anything, its only on some earbuds like the airpods, sony x, so additional feature its great for movies as if you take one earbud out the playback auto pauses and it auto resumes etc.

 

The problem here on the tabs is Confer With is on we have the ring tone is pre-loaded, so the earbuds thinks its a playback media that can be played back, So it plays our ring tone instead:) 

 

So jus to confirm if this does happen, it is not a call and will not appear in your stats as a missed call. This is purely the playback of he media files on earbuds.
