Siri turn by turn directions volume too low over bluetooth

Using Maps + Spotify, the volume of Siri's voice is too low when paired to a bluetooth-aux dongle to my car.

I think I'm unable to raise the volume, because if I press volume up while Siri is giving directions, the volume of the music is the one changing, while if I invoke Siri, the Bluetooth connection switches to the handsfree protocol, Siri's voice lowers in quality, and the volume is adjusted only on that protocol.

Furthermore, iOS 15 removed the setting for Siri voice loudness in Maps.

What can I do?

iPhone 13, iOS 15

Thanks for the reply but this post is about voice volume. Turn by turn navigation is correctly activated, it is just low compared to the music volume.

Yes, I wish this forum would be more serious. Even Reccomended by Apple ahahah

Any chance you found an answer? I was thinking about buying a BT reciever without microphone... so difficult to come across anyway, everyone has one.

I had the problem of no turn by turn voice navigation with maps. I tried turning up the volume while maps was responding and I got no voice response. I would get traffic warnings ie. crash warnings, but no turn by turn directions. I found a speaker icon at the upper right hand of the screen that once I was able to tap it a menu opened up and I was able to turn the speaker on and my turn by turn voice returned.
