I wasn't able to reproduce this.  But  I wasn't able to find the  RDS TA app.   Just tested using  the microphone to ask Google assistant what time it was.

 What Android Auto displays on the screen of the car is:

If the issue seems random  it could be a bad usb cable.   I had a lot of problems till I switched to a shorter one.

But other possibilities are:
- The phones power saving feature can interfere with apps running in the background
- Misbehaving audio app stealing focus ( audio focus is cooperative on android )
I'll check if any recent updates are causing an issue.   

 
Thank you very much!

I am not sure if it is the USB cable as it is a good solid/sturdy cable which came with the phone is relatively short and it is a USB Type C connector (the micro's can get a bit wonky). It is not random, it does not happen with Podcast Addict. The issue after a TA is only with RP.

Another work-around: when driving in areas where I am not familiar with the roads and/or language is simply turning TA off. Worked in Scotland :- )

Hi all,

Finally after some time I have a car with Android Auto. So glad that I can now play my two favorite (phone) audio apps using the car audio system (instead of a Bluetooth speaker) while on the road: Podcast Addict and Radio Paradise (Spotify is not a favorite).

There is one snatch with the RP app though. After there has been a RDS TA (Traffic Announcement) interrupt, RP should continue. It does not, someone hangs waits in try to fetch some data. This does not happen with Podcast Addict after a TA. The work-around after a RP/TA interrupt is to switch Android Auto briefly to Podcast Addict and then to RP again. But it is rather cumbersome.

As I understood it, Android Auto runs on the phone so it gets updated automatically. So is it the RP app? I do use both the live stream and caches as well.

Thanks in advance!
