Welcome to the forum mercuryrsng and we wish you good times with your car.
I haven't played with the album art too much, but i don't think there's a way to show album art outside the Carplay interface. I assume that the stock audio system on the car wouldn't even know that music was playing as the music would be going via the Carplay interface. Perhaps somebody else here has played around with album art more and has some ideas.
For the ringer volume, if I remember correctly, you can adjust the volume on the spot using the volume knob on the infotainment system while the phone is ringing.
