Switching phones - 2022 Wireless Android Auto

HI all,

Just got the RDX today, and after a ton of trial/error, I found an ugly way to switch phones if you have two paired phones both connected to wireless android auto, and the wrong one got picked when you start up the car. (eg: husband & wife in car, RDX picked the passenger seat's phone)
- Go to the Acuralink -> then the options icon on the upper right, and then switch phones to the one you want. (Note that the more obvious bluetooth menu won't allow changes when Android Auto is active, and the Android auto settings seem to show no way to do this).
- Then go to Android auto, and it says no phone is connected, and then connect the phone you want.

This is a lot of taps on the truetouch, anyone find an easier way?

Ideally, ACURA if you are listening, please set a "primary phone" capability in the software so that it picks primary if multiple are present, and allow that to vary with the seat1/seat2 selection.
