[Q] Stop audio from playing when removing from car dock. - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I love the Moto Car Dock on the Atrix but there is one thing that drives me crazy! When I cut the ignition in the car and kill power to the Atrix USB the audio stops. I guess the feature is called auto-pause. Then when I remove the Atrix from the dock the audio starts playing again through the phone speaker. The only way this won't happen is if I pause the audio of quite whatever app is playing the audio before I stop the car.
Does anyone know a workaround or a way to disable this default behavior?

Car dock questions

My first post. Just wondering if anyone else who has the car dock has the issue that I'm having. When I am playing music from both the stock music player or Power Amp and take the phone out of the dock, the music doesn't pause but transfers to the phone speakers.
Is there any way to mod the car dock to pause the music when disconnected from the dock?

Same thing on mine. I think it used to pause on the original ROM, but started transferring to phone speaker after 1.5.7 update, but I am not %100 sure about this.

[Q] anyway to force audio on alarm apps through headphone output?

Wanting to use my phone as an alarm, but force audio out through the 3.5 headphone output which I have plugged into the aux input on my hifi, that way I can wake up to half an hour of my fave tunes. Have tried a few alarm apps, but all seem to force output to phone speaker, and don't seem to have any options to force output to headphone socket. Anyone any advice? Is there an app that will allow headphone socket audio out forcing, or an alarm app I may have missed that will allow this.
anyone know if the official samsung dock forces all audio through the dock audio out?
I have the official car dock and if you tick the option under dock settings it will send all audio through the output if you plug your cable into the dock. Never tried it with an alarm, but I would think it would work.
I tried using the keyboard dock with my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the alarm sound went through the output.

[Q] Sound output for Google Maps/etc?

Hello! I have a few strange questions for you all, and I"m guessing that this isn't really possible, but, here goes..
I have a car that has built-in bluetooth, so I connect my Atrix to it via that for phone calls. Is there a way to force the sound output through something other than bluetooth, ie USB or the audio cable? The downside to having the phone connected via bluetooth is that I cannot hear the navigation voice in Google Maps if I'm not in bluetooth audio mode on the car (or if I have the usb cable connected to the stereo to listen to music). Thanks!
If you have a car dock...it will output the sound from the calls via bluetooth and the navigation through the dock sound connector. But you still have to have the sound go somewhere. I normally use my phone for all audio experiences...radio...music...etc...and the navigation will chime in when it's time for it to.
Thanks for the reply! Only downside is if I plug my phone into the USB port in the car, it'll play music but won't play the nav over the speakers for some reason. I have controls on my steering wheel that I want to use, but I might just have to make do with looking at the screen without the audio. :\
the latest version of Google maps got rid of navigation volume and uses media volume. I restored an earlier version.

[Q] OEM Car Dock, Call through Speakers

Been looking for hours on this and other forums. I recently purchased the OEM RAZR (not Maxx) car dock. Everything works as is designed. So that's why I'm here.
Setup: USB w/ Y female 3.5mm audio plugged from dock to power, 3.5mm audio from the Y-connector to aux-in. My radio doesn't have bluetooth
Problem: By default when media is played on the phone it plays through the car speakers. When a call come through the audio cuts out (good) and the call goes through the speakerphone (bad)
I've seen a solution that works on the bionic, the droid 3, and the atrix using an app called Settings Profile. It works like tasker, if this and this then this. In this case its [If car docked, and a call is active, then active speakerphone off] The app works on the RAZR but even though you can change the timing at which it should occur the timing is never the same.
Has anyone else seen a solution for this? I've tried it on .211 and leaked .215 builds. Running stock leaked .215, no root. Thoughts?

I have the dock as well, I have a smart action set so when the phone connects to the car dock to auto reply to texts and turn off the speakerphone. Or maybe I just don't notice it. Smart Actions is the way to go if you want to set up car dock stuff IMO.

I can't seem to find anything related to speakerphone control in smart actions. What does your rule look like?

bluetooth audio issue

Anyone experience this? connected to the car bluetooth, but when i off the infotaintment and stop the car, the music continue playing using the phone speaker. H'mmm not a bit issue but very troublesome to stop what is playing every time
I read in a review that there's a setting you can change which lets you have music continue playing after removing headphones or have it automatically pause, I believe this setting will also affect bluetooth audio as well, perhaps this will help? I can't say if it is this though, I haven't got mine yet but it will be good for me to know too as I connect my phone to my car's stereo via bluetooth and will do the same with the Z2.
