Hi guys,

I'm a bit out off guess and hope, somebody is able to support my issue.

Since a couple of hours my MI Note 2 (xiaomi.eu 9.1 stable) is showing a new (unknown) icon in the status line (see image - the red-marked one).
No idea what the phone tries to tell.

Unfortunately not only the icon appeared - since then any music player, alarm clock, youtube etc. gives any sound. The ring tone in case of a phone call works perfect. The "plopp" sound which appears normally when the phone is switched on is missing as well.

Using a headset everything is fine.

More or less strange - no problem with sound in case I change the loudness of the ringtone or alarm sound, but no sound in case I change the ringtone itself.

I did not find any setting that gives information that "soemthing" is muted. So I'm asking for help :)

Thanks Jens.

PS: No software update or installation in the past 10 days. Any software update is always disabled on my phone.

Got a hint from others. The icon describes a BT headset (I never activated one). BT off and BT on solves the problem (reboot does not).
