Unhappy sound dropping out

Hey Guys

Any help would be great.
my 2017 streetglide cvo boom 6.5
sound is dropping out (on all speakers) then comes back on for a while then off. any Ideas appreciated. I have heard it could be a cold solder connection on the board inside radio.

Check you settings and volume prompts for the GPS.

It is a common issue if after using the GPS and not ending the route that the GPS will keep wanting to take you back to the last destination. If the turn by turn prompts are turned down if will shut the music off and tell you to redirect your course but if the volume is down you wont hear it.

Default Similar audio problem

I’m having a similar audio problem on my 2014 ultra limited 6.5 GT boom box. Sound will randomly drop out on all 4 speakers for about 2 seconds then it will come back on. It does this on any input, FM radio, media player (usb) or Bluetooth from iPhone.
I thought maybe it just needs to have the latest software update so I tried that but problem still there. I just read another post about checking some settings in the navigation menu so I’ll be checking on that tomorrow. Any ideas appreciated.
THANKS

the nav was talking and cutting out the radio to do it. (like it should) I just cleared all nav routes works great now. Thanks to all.
