Im sorry, I didnt explain that well. It connects, but sometimes not automatically. Ill have to manually connect.

What Im trying to figure out is why my Sony can sometimes control pause/play functions but other times it doesnt.

I think I figured it out though. Yesterday, on my way home in wonderful rush hour traffic I decided to do some testing. I started with my iPhone bt off and the head unit on. On the iPhone, I turned on BT and selected XPLOD in the device menu to connect to, it connected but the Sony didnt control pause and play. So I started over again.
This time I turned the iPhone BT on but didnt select XPLOD from the device menu on the iPhone, instead I pressed a couple of buttons on the Sony and bam!! Got it!! The number 6 on the Sony is what I previously got to work pause/play so I thought, why not. Without the devices linked, but with BT turned on for both, I pressed the number 6 on the Sony and bam, they linked up. I pressed it one more time and the iPhone started playing music! So Im not sure why this is the case, but it works.

Sorry for the long post, this stuff is kind of hard to explain.
