Just wanted to know if anyone else have audio issues. I'll explain.
When I leave my tablet to sleep some minutes, or a while, or some hours, sometimes after resuming it, it will not have sound anymore. And actually, any attempt of playing sounds (for example...the keyboard "tick" sound..) will make my tablet to play "SHSHSHHSHSHSHSHSH" (noise..) for about 4 or 5 seconds. This will repeat everytime I try to play something. The fix is to reboot, but its kinda depressing showing off the tablet and it fails like that D: LOL
Thanks!
last bump? Anyone?
I have not - it could be a hardware defect. Have you tried it in stock (or are you in stock right now?)
A few users have mentioned audio static at times, but I have never had this issue.
Never any problems since buying the tablet in late November. I would exchange the unit wherever you bought it.

That's exactly what mine is doing. After the reboot, it's fine...makes me think it's not hardware. I'm running TNTlite 3.1.2. Didn't have it in 2.4. What are you running? Also running the lag patch.
This actually just happened to me yesterday -- the "SHSHSHSHSHSHS" static playing quite loud. I muted all sound (i.e. Silent Mode) and it stopped -- but when I re-enabled sound and started an app with music, it returned.
BTW: I am running Vegan Beta 4...
Rebooted and it has gone away (for now) -- but I notice something strange now...
Perhaps someone else can reproduce this:
1) Put tablet in Silent mode (from settings, not via Volume rocker)
2) No sounds should be heard when clicking any apps in drawer, home button, etc.
3) Re-enable sound from Sound settings (Turn OFF Silent mode)
4) Using the volume rocker, turn the volume all the way down until it is supposed to be "OFF" (Media Volume Speaker is grey and has an "X" beside it)
5) Click on any apps in drawer, you should hear a very faint "click" when you select that shouldn't be there normally
Interestingly, it also happens for some touches of the capacitive "hard" buttons -- mainly Menu and Back since almost all apps have those options. "Home" and "Search" do not seem to trigger sounds...
A strange glitch to be sure but one I can live with (it's Beta software after all) -- wondering if anyone else has this as well?
**UPDATE: Weird...While the above problem still exists, I noticed that sound seems to play properly (i.e. without static, noise, etc) when you go into the Sound settings menu, select Volume, and turn OFF the "Use incoming call volume for notifications" -- which gives you an extra slider to set. After setting that slider to any value, the problem hasn't reappeared and sound seems clean (so far)
Perhaps not having the "phone" functions in the tablet borked the setting? Nothing to read from? And force assigning a value helps?
It happened to me for the first time yesterday watching videos on CNN. I believe it was the video about Brett Farve getting fined for not cooperating with the NFL. I stopped the video and started again, and it was fine from that point on.
Same here on zpad ...except no shhhh sound or whatever just silence when trying to play music....so annoying
actually even a reboot isn't fixing it now...still no sound at all
well im glad im not alone, i dont think its a hardware issue

Fwiw i flashed vegans latest build and probem is fixed for now...zpad ws causijg me all kinds of hell....but i liked it best
FYI: The "Shshshshshsh" came back on my GTablet last night and it was LOUD...
Had to reboot to get it to clear...muting sound didn't seem to work to stop it...
Will be flashing Vegan Beta 5.1 so hopefully it will go away with a Wipe...
Same problem here too... even happened in VEGAN 5.1 last night so I flashed to TNT Lite 4.0 and it happened there as well.
This happens when I use Fring. I get an extremely loud noise from connection till close. Since we are discussing sound issues, I'm not getting any sound from my avi files. It shows beautifully but no sound. I tried many players but no success. Anyone experience this?

I only get sound from ac3 encoded avi files when using rockplayer software decoding.
I get a constant low static noise thru headphones. Also a pop sound every now and then.

I occasionally get a nonstop static SHHHHHH that is only corrected by rebooting. Had it with every version of TnTlite, never happened when I had vegan
So hardware or software problem? Is anyone for sure yet?
now mine is doing something else strange....media volume, when hitting hte rocker is stuck on silent....when I go into sounds, make sure silent is off....and increase media volume under volume....then hit ok...I go back into volume and it has reverted back to 0%....can't figure it out...
vegan 5.1 with cleymson kernel
Same issue here. I have actually had it happen while using it from a fresh boot...no sleep
I use the countdown timer built in to the SGS2 stock rom quite a bit. It has always played the selected sound whenever I've used it, but today the sound stopped working when the timer reached 00h 00m 00s.
I can select the alert sound from the menu and it will play the test sound when selected, but when used on the actual timer it's silent no matter which sound I select.
I'm on Orange UK with stock rom kernel build XWKF3, baseband version XXKE7...only just flashed via the official Kies update in the past week.
Apart from that (and the Social Hub force close problem) everything else works fine.
Anyone got any ideas about how I can get the sound back on my timer?
UPDATE: After a bit more digging, the problem seems to be 'system sound'. If I go to Menu/Settings/Sound/Volume I get the 4 default sliders for Incoming Call, Media, System and Notification volumes. Adjusting the Call, Media or Notification volumes via their own sliders results in a preview of the volume. However, when adjusting the System volume I get no sound whatsoever.
Again, as far as I can tell, all other sounds (including Alarm) appear to work fine.
UPDATE 2: The problem seems to be solely related to the timer. After more testing, all other sounds appear to work...Keypad tones, Alarm, Music, Game sounds, Video sounds...everything execept the timer alert sound...it's driving me mad!
Any suggestions on how to fix?
Thanks again,
Rich
Anyone?

having the same problem; have you found a solution?
i'm rooted and have disabled camera sound as described here (method 1); but it seems to be unrelated..
I have the same problem too.. It is driving me crazy for searching this solution. Looks like not a lot of people have this problem.
I need the timer sound !! Grr...

Kn0cker or simonskling....
Did you ever find a solution? My timer is still silent even after a further firmware update the problem remains the same as my original post, so I'm still searching for a solution. But as you say Simon, it doesn't look like many people have this problem. Either that or they do have the same problem but just don't use the timer.
I'm tearing out what little hair I have!!
Just downloaded 'Volume Ace Free' from Android Market for reasons entirely unrelated to the timer sound problem I was still having. Decided to test a few 'sound' apps after playing about with Volume Ace...and guess what? My timer sound is working again...lol.
Don't ask me what setting I changed though (but I suspect it's something to do with Systems sounds).
Hope this helps anyone else who has been suffering with the same problem.

I am having the same problem and its driving me crazy?
Any luck?
LE: I also installed "Volume Ace Free" and noticed that the Alarm volume was set to 0. After I changed there, the timer sound appeared. Crazy!!!!
Hey folks!
Okay, I'm getting desperate here and I have no idea what other thing to do.
When I have the headphones/headset plugged in, notifications, ringtones and system sounds like volume changing STILL are coming from the loudspeaker but only music comes from the headphones/headset. And yes, I double ckecked the sound preferences.
I had this issue with the newest MIUI (2.1.13) and now with CheckRom RevoHD V4. I even went back to the stock firmware that was on the device when I got it via CWM restore, but still the same issue.
I normally use the Siyah Kernel (right now v2.6.7), I tried out various ones and even different radios (right now running XXKL1, tried out XXKH3) and no change.
Does somebody have an advice? I'm sick and tired of turning the volume all down because I others could hear my chat notifications every few seconds when I have my headphones/headset plugged in :/
Thanks
Aww, nobody? :/
I have the same issue, i googled it many times but i couldn't get any solution either. Doesn't anyone have any solution (not advice) for this?
Hi All,
I just newly use RAZR for 3 months. Everything is ok until few weeks ago my phone volume suddenly became very low.
During receiving phone call I can't hear anything, I have to activate phone speaker to get caller sound.
This issue not exist if I used headset.
I checked all sound setting and everything seems set normally.
Currently I used MUIU 2.9.29, from previously i used 2.7.10
I dunno if custom rom is causing this issue.
Please share if you have any resolution for this issue.
Regards,
I've had a very strange issue crop up yesterday. My external speaker (the one on the back of the phone) volume has suddenly become very very low, you have to hold it to your ear to hear anything. The headphones and all are working fine
OS: CM11 M8 - been using this for over a week now
Stuff I've tried
1. I don't think I installed any app or made any update that would make the speaker behave this way.
2. I've checked the volume panel and all are at full. I've tried using multiple music players/alarms etc to see if it works and the volume is extremely low in all of them.
3. I've tried rebooting the phone.
Please help
Edit: a couple of forums say that it might be due to the headphone jack not recognizing that headphones have been removed. Seems possible since my speaker is not crackling/buzzing and gives clear sound but at a very very low volume level. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?
Help ... tried cleaning the headphone jack, removing the battery and restarting the phone. Not willing to do a factory reset if it's a hardware fault
What do you suggest ?
Got it solved, and in a very strange way
Restored my orignal 4.0 rom with twrp image. That suddenly caused all my speakers to start working. Moved back to the CM image and everything still works fine
Weird but true, mods can you add solved to the title
