As a further annoyance, once the text was dismissed, the radio sound would not return without using the iDrive controller. Total garbage.

I did not experience that during my time, albeit limited, with CarPlay, but I understand how that can ruin the experience. Hopefully these bugs were fixed in the latest iDrive, but I guess I'll find out soon!
