Allow Bluetooth speakers (with no mic) to be used on iPhone & iPad

The Webex meetings client is blocking the ability to use an output only audio device on iPhone & iPad. Other meetings apps allow the speaker to be selected which then takes the microphone input from the previously selected audio device.

This is restricting some of our users who want to use a separate microphone and speaker setup on an iPad who are complaining "it works on Zoom".

If possible it would be great to add the option to independently select input and output devices on iOS devices in the same way you can on a PC & Mac. Failing that, then please allow a Bluetooth speaker to be selected, which is the default iOS behavior.

    Have the same issue. We are using an external wireless mic system which connects to the lighting port of the iphone. It does not have the ability to output audio back to a speaker.

    We would like to use a bluetooth speaker to hear because if we try to use another device, then we just get feedback.
