I recently purchased A Santa Fe Sd45 Legacy diesel and when I operate it in Bluetooth mode with the Lion Chief app, The prime mover sounds stay idle while the train is in motion at any speed. I recently saw two videos where people ran their legacy diesel engines with the app and the prime mover sounds matched the train's speed. The engines in question were very recent as of 2022 and 2023 while mine is a legacy engine from the 2018 catalog. I wonder if those batches of engines from 2017-2020 have this issue while the newer legacy diesel engines 2021? or 2022 to present don't. I wonder what the issue is, I'm using an Android phone btw.

There was a thread some time back where someone was having the same issue with BT.  I don't remember if it was ever resolved, but it was probable right around the same time-frame.
