Ring on Speakers FAQs

Can the ringtone use speakers while the call uses a headset?
Supported clients can use separate alert and communications outputs where the operating system and audio devices expose that capability.
Why did the ringtone output change?
Docking, Bluetooth reconnection, device removal, operating-system updates, or a changed default output can alter audio routing. Recheck settings after hardware changes.
Is Ring on Speakers available on every TalkChief account?
Separate ring and call outputs depend on client and operating-system support. Device names, permissions, volume, and default-audio changes can affect behavior.
