Preferred SIM card for Voice calls not working in Secondary user profile

pixel9

I have set preferred SIM for Voice calls in Owner - Settings - Network and Internet - SIMs - Your primary SIMs.
It works in Owner profile as expected and the chosen SIM is used for all calls initiated.
The setting does not keep for Secondary profile (calls and sms are allowed in that profile), however Owner profile is the only place where it can be set so I assume the setting should be working in secondary profiles.
The behavior is that it always asks to choose from both SIMs.
I tested on 6a and 7a with same results.

I switched to double sim setup just now and it was only couple of hours before I installed the latest release 2024123000. I did just one call in between. I think it worked before the latest release.. but I might be mistaken..
It would be good to proof from somebody who use double sim setup longer..

in secondary profile it ask you to choose the sim...it has always been like that. in my case at least.

you have no way to set sim preferences in a secondary profile so it naturally ask what you want to use.

if you weren't using dual sims before it didn't ask because there was no alternatives you had only one sim.

Same issue on a Pixel 7 Pro using dual-SIMS (eSim + phySim).

Date of Issue: 10 Jan 2025

MAIN profile: 2/3 SIM uses are set to "Ask every time." Data SIM is assigned.

ALTERNATE profile: using GOS Messenger app

sending a message warns user that no SIM is selected
long-pressing SEND icon brings up SIM options
selecting desired SIM does not produce expected results; fails to assign either SIM

Temp solution is to log back into MAIN profile and make SIM selection there. Log back into ALTERNATE profile and send message.

Have not attempted to make a phone call from the ALTERNATE profile with communications set to "Ask every time" so cannot honeslty verify if results are similar.
