end() forgets the last connected device after restarting

[makmal0962]

Problem Description

it should be remember the last connected device, unlike disconnect() which intentionally forgets it. can you make it non forgettable for restart or is there any workaround for this?

Device Description

MH-ET Live D1 Mini ESP32 (Wemos D1 Mini ESP32 clone)

Provide your Version of the EP32 Arduino Core (or the IDF Version)

PlatformIO: platform = espressif32@6.12.0

I am afraid, I don't quite understand: what do you want to achieve ?
There is nothing to stop you to store this in your application....

when i called a2dp_sink.end(false) and call a2dp_sink.start(device_name) again after that, it forgets the previously connected device. what i want to achieve is: reconnect host after restarting again.

Did you try to store the address yourself and then just call connect() instead of start ?

[makmal0962]

no. i don't store the address myself. that's the failed attempts leftover if you found comment on my sketch

[makmal0962]

let me try it again

Not clearing the last connected device on end() would introduce quite some error cases and the issue that it would potentially connect to the wrong devcice.

So you will have to resove this yourself with my proposed work-around above or by not calling end(): just disconnect() and reconnect()...
