Bluetooth & Google maps

Hi all,

when pairing my phone via Bluetooth with the system in my car I can make phone calls hands free. However, when I want to use Google maps pairing automatically turns off the phone's speaker so I cannot hear directions.

Is there a setting available that allows both pairing via Bluetooth and, maybe, hear the directions through the car's speakers just like a phone call?

Thanks in advance
