I have a 2015 1500 with the 8.4 UConnect and my wife has the 2016 Cherokee with an 8.4 UConnect. Both systems are a PITA when devices (both Android and iOS) are being charged by the USB ports in the vehicle. If I'm listening to the radio and someone is using their device using Spotify or YouTube or whatever using headphones, the UConnect system is constantly switching to media and I have to switch it back to the radio.

Is there a fix or is this the UConnect trying to be too helpful.

If I remember correctly, one of the USB ports is directly connected to Uconnect/charging, and the other USB is charging only.
