Strange issue with answering calls

Hello iMore Nation,
I am using iPhone 5S with iOS 7.1.3 (legally) and have an issue with answering phone call with Bluetooth headset Motorola H720. When the BT headset is connected starting a call is not a problem, but when answering a call, the audio goes to the phone and not to the BT.
Is it normal behavior or it is a dev OS bug. Is there a setting to tell to the phone always to answer phone calls with BT when connected?
Could it be that it is hardware problem. To eliminate the possibility of BT headset hardware problem i tested it with another phone(Z10) and it worked just fine.
Another piece of information, when i use the same BT with Google Maps it works just fine.

Thanks for any help and advise:biggrin:

Same here. Not sure if is just the way it is or a setting. I sure as heck can't find a setting for it. Would be stupid if this is the way it works.

Settings>General>Accessibility scroll down to incoming calls set default to headset May be a work around for this.

Hello BBGary :) do you have another BT to try and compare how it handles your incoming phone calls?

There is a known issue with Bluetooth on A7 devices with the iOS 7.1 beta installed where Bluetooth has a problem staying connected.
