Bluetooth disconnect device not working?

Hi,

I want a Task that will disconnect my headphones. So I created a Bluetooth Connection Task as you'd expect but when I execute it, the headphones are still connected. 

Any tips on what I should be doing? I've tried matching by MAC address and name to no avail. 

Exported XML:

<TaskerData sr="" dvi="1" tv="5.9.2">

 <Task sr="task21">

  <cdate>1581970422342</cdate>

  <edate>1581981740940</edate>

  <id>21</id>

  <nme>Disconnect BT</nme>

  <pri>100</pri>

  <Action sr="act0" ve="7">

   <Bundle sr="arg0">

That's interesting, I wonder why they don't have an API for it. Thanks anyway!

Hi, so you have any idea what might be wrong? My phone is a OnePlus 6T, not rooted. 

Thanks.  

Unfortunately the disconnect API is not officially available for apps to use. I had to use a workaround to access it. Maybe because of this some manufacturers or devices don't properly implement it... :(

Yeah I tried that already I'm afraid. BTW I have the Master & Dynamic wireless buds and they show up as two distinct BT devices in Android (L and R). I tried disconnecting each one answered also both, to no avail. 
Cheers. 

    Disconnect BT (21)

    A1: Bluetooth Connection [ Action:Disconnect Device:M&D MW07 PLUS R Timeout (Seconds):60 ] 

     

Thanks for your prompt help!

Pete

Can you please try using the device's mac address and see if that makes it work?

Can you please export your task's description (not xml) so I can take a look? Long-click the task in Tasker->export description Thanks in advance
