Suggestions for AMI cable/attachment for streaming audio?

I have one, and my only complaint is that after I hook up to ViseeO streaming, when I'm on the phone I can hear the music streaming in the background no matter what I do with the music. The only way to get rid of it, is to disconnect the ViseeO and reinstall it. Does anyone else have this problem? Is this a defect with mine, or just a feature of the ViseeO?
Thanks in advance.

I have a ViseeO WMA1000 with firmware 3.20 and an OEM bluetooth telephone interface in place of the OnStar system. With my Samsung Galaxy S3 there is no audio playing in the background while on a phone call. If Pandora is playing and a call is placed, the music is automatically muted and paused during the call. Once the call is finished the music resumes from where it was paused.
With the Galaxy S3 all transport controls within the currently active audio app work properly. I do not have artist / track / album information on the MMI display regardless of the app in use. A cursory web search shows this is normal behavior for the Galaxy S3 and may be rectified in a future Android update.
I tried Pandora on an iPad 3 and the artist / track / album information is available on the MMI display so it appears the ViseeO can display any information that is being made available over the bluetooth connection.
I connected a 2nd generation iPod touch that works perfectly with the ViseeO. It behaves exactly as it would if connected directly to the dock cable in the AMI.
A side benefit of the bluetooth interface is navigation audio from the phone is played over the AMI. If I'm using Google Navigation it's nice to be able to easily hear the directions provided by the app.
IMO the ViseeO WMA1000 is a great interface. It appears to work perfectly as I can prove the only "issues" I have are due to my phone and not the ViseeO.

So my review is that this device may work well with iOS devices, but it is pretty buggy with Android. I primarily use Rdio for a streaming music subscription, but have also used the stock Android music player with the same results. Basically, the AMI sits there and says initializing, and sometimes eventually plays music, and sometimes not. I am trying to figure out the combination that makes it play, but haven't found a reliably workflow yet. I think it may need to be playing on the stock music player, then enable bluetooth, and then it plays (and then I can switch over to Rdio), but sometimes this doesn't work. It does not seem to work well controlling the player either even though some track navigation shows up (next and prev).
I tested it with an iPad and it seems to work much better. Maybe other Android devices work better, but I think I might just get an AUX cable and forget bluetooth.

• Now also works with Android phones, Windows Phone 8 devices, 3rd party music apps such as Sportify and Pandora, iPod docking stations (tune2air software version V3.17 and above). When work with these devices tune2air provide only wireless music streaming function without displaying track info and music library list.
I have firmware 3.2.0
