[Q] Stopping music playing when pressing the headset button? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been looking around a bit and couldn't find an answer to this.
How can I make it so that if/when the button on the packaged headset is pushed that it will never start playing music? It is irritating and never intentional. Am I missing something on where to turn off this "feature" somewhere?

Hmmm... I have a very similar problem. Whenever I plug in my headphones, the music player automatically starts! It's driving me nuts! I use my headphones to watch youtube or other videos and it's very frustrating having to pause what I am watching to turn off the music player.
Did you find a solution? Or does anyone else have a solution?
Appreciate any help!
thanks!

what player do you use? some player like cubed have an option to open the player when you plug your headset.
also for op: what player do you use? if you use the stock music player, try anotehr one who has an option to use the headset (like cubed or ubermusic) then delete the stock player, and turn off the option on your new player, then it wont start playing anything

i think this one doesn't play automatically

Music freezes over bluetooth and audio out

I know there was a post recently regarding this issue, but it didn't seem to have been answered completely so I thought I'd give it another shot:
Occasionally while streaming music over bluetooth and over the headphone jack, the player will freeze. When I restart it, the player jumps back to an earlier point in the track.
I've noticed this problem using the stock music player, winamp, power amp and doubletwist.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. None of these apps are listed under auto-kill in the task manager.
Thanks guys,

[Q] Having problems with music using earphones

The music plays fine normally. With the earphones on, I can listen to other people while making calls, I can listen to the ringtones while testing them. I just can not seem to get to listen to the music! It appears to be playing but there is no sound. I have no volume controls on my earphones so I think I am missing something inside the settings.
I am having problems with the native music player, youtube, pandora. Is there anything else I can test ?
It would be great if someone could help me out on this. Thanks!
Julio Iglesias does this to my earphones also!
All it required, apparently, was a damned reboot. The phone was drained completely of the battery and turned off. When it was back up, everything was back to normal.
When in doubt... reboot!

Random music playing out of speaker when BT is running

Ok I've had this problem for the last couple days. I will be in the middle of listening to music through Winamp over my bluetooth headset.
All of the sudden the bluetooth headset stops playing music and the music starts playing out of the speaker. However, it is not the same music...it is a completely different song. If i use the volume rocker it shows it adjusting bluetooth volume but does not change the random speaker music volume.
If I go into settings>Applications>Running Services and Force Stop all Music programs the music still does not stop playing out of the speaker.
If I turn the bluetooth headset off and then use the volume rocker it shows adjusting ringtone volume, but the random speaker music will be adjusted.
Also, while I was not even using bluetooth the other day this same thing happened. It seems to only happen when the screen is turned off.
I am really trying to figure out what is causing this but I cannot figure it out.
I have frozen my "music 2.3.4."; "Music 3.0.1" ; and "Phantom Music Control Widget" and the problem persists.
I don't think it is related but this did not start happening until I installed the Faux123 1.9 kernel. I may also try to revert back to 1.7 to see if the issue persists.
I am still trying to figure this out and will probably try another music program other than winamp to see if the problem still happens.
Any insight would be much appreciated.

I had something similar happening a while back. What it turned out to be was that the widget for another music program was still active somehow after deleting it. Freezing the program didn't stop things. I eventually realized what was happening, dropped another widget on my desktop again, made sure all music was stopped, then deleted it again.
Also check your settings in all music programs for bluetooth and playback. I have found that having multiple music programs installed would really cause a sh*tmess sometimes. Better to uninstall everything but stock music player, then only install the one you wish to use, then freeze the stock player after turning off all "auto" functions in it.

[Q] Stop playing on disconnect

Hi,
Before custom ROMS were built on ICS, when I was listening to streaming music in my car (via bluetooth), the phone would automatically stop playing when the car turned off. Same thing if I'm listening to music and I pull the headphones out, whatever was playing gets paused.
Now, when I turn my car off, the music doesn't stop playing, it just starts playing through the phone's speaker.
So my question is, is it the ROM that makes a player pause on disconnect or is it the actual APP that decides to either stop or keep playing through the speaker.
I know PowerAMP has options to auto play and auto stop on disconnect, but other apps like youtube, Audiostation (for my synology NAS) and a few others don't have settings.

I think the fact that some apps have the option indicates that at very least, the app does have some control over it. I don't know if the ROM/kernel have some default setting built in for apps that don't define it.
It seems to be a feature missing in ICS. I'm hoping it shows up by the final update.
I use Tasker to accomplish the same thing. The whole task for media is when I plug headphones in, it launches a menu with media apps (music, netflix, etc) and turns the media volume up to 6. When disconnected, it mutes media volume, pauses media, and returns to the homescreen.
I'll take a look at that in the interim, all I really need is it just to pause on BT disconnect like it use to. The is already a separate volume setting for BT vs the headphone jack. Thanks for the tip.
That's interesting, I didn't know tasker had something to pause media. I'll definitely give that a try.
I believe that was an AOSP tweak..my Inc running CM7 would pause on bluetooth disconnect.

[Q]Sound playback issue through earphones

I'm having this weird thing. I don't think i had this problem on MIUI but on 3 different kitkat roms, i play music and i can listen to it in earphone but if i close the music app, leave the earphones plugged in and try to play music again, they don't catch any sound unless i remove them, play it on speakers and while playing, if i insert the earphone, i get the playback.
Anyone else experienced it?
