My involved Samsung devices are a S25U, S9FE, and B3P.

Was playing Spotify on my buds which were primary at the time I think on the tablet. Those of you who use Spotify will know it's pretty good at being on all devices at once. I can change the music on my laptop, watch, phone, etc. they all sinc up.

So I grabbed my phone to change the music and the buds/Samsung software had a stroke. It switched the buds to primary on the phone, but then back to the tablet which is also connected to my home stereo and started playing from there, then back to the phone and buds, then back to the tablet and stereo, and then just kept repeating going back and forth a dozen times or so until I stopped it.

Samsung really needs to work on this software that tries to seamlessly switch between devices. When it works it works only OK, but wow when it glitches it's wicked weird and frustrating. If I had my way I'd really like the buds to just stay paired with my watch then all the devices relay sound through the watch to the buds. But as far as I can find there's no way to have it do that.

 

Edit: 

It was doing it between my watch and phone as well today and I think I figured it out. Both devices had the Spotify app fully main screen. So they both wanted primary control and kept swapping back and forth. Once I minimized the app in one the other took control and kept it.

Check for software update on all devices. My Flip7 just had another update and I believe my b3p did too.
