Auracast expertise? Samsung => Pixel 9 => Starkey Omega AI 24

Hey all, looking for some expertise in .

I have a FlooGoo USB dongle on my PC, and a new Samsung Tab S10+ that I am using for Auracast broadcasting. I can make both of them work fine, but the volume is not very high when maxed out. I can hear it fine with the audio I have tried, but I am concerned that audio recorded at a lower value might be an issue.

At the moment, the volume controls on the tablet or PC are maxed, as is the volume control on the Pixel phone connected to my hearing aid. My wife listens to the same broadcast with Sony LinkBuds Fit and she can increase volume considerably higher on her earbuds (with her phone) than I can. Is the issue with the hearing aid then, and volume limitations to the phone’s connection to it? Volume from the Pixel when streaming audio over regular Bluetooth is quite a bit louder.

I suspect the issue is with your hearing aids. The aids are expecting a higher db input then what the FlooGoo or phone are delivering.

I would go to the section here at this website, and ask if someone has the programming software and have them check to see if there is an adjustment to db input that can be made to your Starkey hearing aids.

With the Homespot BA210, the software for it will allow you to adjust the db output. However, I don’t see a way to do it with the FlooGoo software, and perhaps the Samsung software has the same limitation. However, this is really a Starkey issue and they should fix it.

Note that if you where to adjust the db output in the Homespot transmitter, would that blast the Sony headset with too much volume? So I suspect this is a Starkey issue, and they need to fix it.

Floogoo’s CS (Flairmesh) has been very responsive and helpful, and @Ranson has offered plenty of support to users here. I’m really impressed with his collaborative efforts.

Could you please check whether, when the Omega 24 is paired and connected in High Quality mode, the volume can be adjusted to a reasonable level using the host’s volume slider?
