Default Boom Box Bluetooth 5 update

I have a 2014 Street Glide Special and the Boom Box just keeps reading and reading my songs. It doesn't recognize the titles anymore either. This started when I upgraded my Samsung Note 4 to the Note 8. I was on 1.22.0.1 and went back to 1.20.3.0 (or something like that), but the problem still exists. I also unpaired and repaired. Same results. I am assuming it is because the Note 8 went to Bluetooth 5

Help

Don't know if this is related, but I'm having the same problem with an 8+ phone. Was reading the songs and titles fine until a few weeks ago. Have gone through the same steps as you. Currently running 1.22.01

Mine does the same thing when playing music from a usb stick. I've found you can stop it by switching over to a radio station for a second and then back to usb. It's not fixing it but it does make it stop.

Have you tried to set the phone's USB connection to allow file sharing?

First the answer: yes. But more importantly songs play. I can move forward and backward. It just doesn't display the names of songs anymore and keeps reading, reading, reading...
