Bug Description

The ear damage warning message is displayed even when connected to an external bluetooth device such as a car kit of bluetooth headset.

This should not happen, because those external devices have a separate volume control, and limiting the volume on the phone/device itself simply limits the range available on the volume control of the external device.

Ideally there should be an option for the phone to disable the volume and automatically set it to maximum when connected to specific bluetooth devices... it can even be dangerous not to do this, since when linking to a car, the volume would be lower on bluetooth... so if the device disconnects and the car switches back to FM radio, the volume would jump up to a high level, startling the driver.
