You can probably program one of the hot keys to toggle it. Otherwise you have to go through the menus and enable it each time. I'll check when I get back home from the Holidays

Yeah, this is pretty irritating for sure. I think it's to prevent owners from plugging a phone into USB, then accidentally still selecting to pull music from their device over Bluetooth Audio and wondering why certain USB-only features like library browsing still aren't available. But the best workaround is either to use a separate charger as another person mentioned, or map an iDrive shortcut as close as you can get to your phone's Bluetooth options, which will probably be the "Bluetooth (music)" option under Multimedia > External Devices. Then you just have to go into Bluetooth options, check the Audio checkbox again, and off you go.

Not to revive an old thread, but Ive never really tried to play music from my phone via Bluetooth, I cant get it to work. Is it because Ive plugged in before and altared my settings? What do I need to switch it to to play music via BT?
