Bluetooth audio out music auto play? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Does anyone know where the settings are for this?
Every time I connect to my car, either the music app or, now since I installed this other music app, starts automatically.
This is really annoying if say for instance I just want to play Pandora.
I'm on saurom 7.1.
Any help would be very much appreciated as I couldn't seem to find anything about this through the search.

This is a major shortcoming of android imho. Try headset button controller from the market.

Which music player ate you using?

Well, originally it was doing it with the standard music app that came with Saurom, I didn't uninstall that or anything, but now that I installed Meridian, it does it with that now.
I couldn't find any settings in meridian for that, but I guess I can check again,I may look in the standard music app's settings as well.

Yeah whenever I connect to my Ford Sync system, my BT audio always starts playing at some random song and usually midway. Rather annoying since my wife's ip4s commands are obeyed perfectly and BT audio waits for her to tell the system what song/album/artist to play.

Anyone managed to find a solution? This is so annoying.

Last.fm not playing

Can't seem to get my last.fm to play on my streak. I'm up on the official 2.2 froyo and it just isn't playing. It acts like it is going to and just sits there. Of the 70 or so times that I've tried it I've gotten one song to play part of the way through just once.
Anyone know what's going on with this?
Thanks a lot
Don't bother with last.fm they went to a subscription only service unless you're on a windows phone. Ditch them, give them a 1 star rating, leave a bad comment, and uninstall.

are you using stock music player? if you do, that wont work.
Use DoubleTwist from the market, it works perfect with last.fm

See, I downloaded it and set it as my default music player and last.fm is still not functioning. I'm starting to wonder if I'm actually setting the default player properly.
for the other comment, I actually pay for the subscription so it really isn't about that. Say what you will but I love last.fm much more than pandora and, quite frankly, the subscription is so cheap i could really care less about paying for it. My feeling is if you like something support it.
bump.
Still having this issue. When I open the Last.fm app it just sits there saying "tuning to station." It will act like it is playing but the progress bar stays blank as well as the time. However, the artist picture does show up and it will change songs as if it were actually playing.
Well, the plot thickens. I finally got it to play two songs today but that was about it and then it went back to being silent. I'm guessing that there must be something up with the app itself.

MixZing microsized on cm7

MixZing was my music player of choice on rooted stock. On CM7 it seems to have some issues. For one, it opens in a tiny window and all of the controls are minuscule as well. For another, MP3s seem to pop and skip occasionally.
Is anyone else having these issues?

Streaming music via Bluetooth while using Nav

On my Droid X, when I was streaming music via Bluetooth to my car stereo and using Google Navigation, when the girl came on to update my directions, the music would pause temporarily and allow the directions to be heard clearly. On my EVO, I just get a jumbled mess that sounds like she is talking underwater while the music plays. I'm using Poweramp and I really like it (been a fan since the first week I owned the DX) and would prefer not to switch, but I will if that's the issue.
Any suggestions or settings I should try to fiddle with?
Thanks in advance for any help!

i know what you mean but you should be able to clearly hear the navigation over the music. my OG evo would pause the music while the navigator spoke, now it just lowers the volume of the music by a lot and the navigator speaks over the music. i would say if the music is not lowering for you then try a different music app, if you have the same issue, then try a factory reset, or flash a different rom, if you do a factory reset then make sure to clear your google wallet settings.
It was PowerAmp...sucks, because I really like it and I don't really feel like paying for another music player, but the stock "Music" UI sucks and the widget is garbage.
Try WinAmp, it is a great music player. Granted I don't know if you will have the same problem or not but it is free so give it a shot.

It's power amp.. As much as I love it I had to stop using it for this very reason. Went back to stock app and I actually kind of like it.

Thanks for the heads up. I was about to buy it too, but that's a deal breaker for me too. Have you emailed the developer?

Ive been suffering of the same issue for some time now and I just emailed the developer about it. I love poweramp too and I would hate giving it up for anything else.
But, has anyone tried winamp? Those that have, can you provide feedback?

Headed to work, gonna give WinAmp a shot. I'll report back tomorrow.
WinAmp works fine, UI is decent, couldn't find any skins in the Play Store. Anybody tried PlayPro?
Poweramp just got an update this am, ill be heading back on post later today and will test if any improvements were made in that are.
Sent from my htc_jewel using Tapatalk 2
just tried PlayerPro.
A decent group of free skins, widgets and a Digital Sound Processor (equalizer). I keep my music files pretty basic, Artist name and genre...no cover art, album title, track number...etc. PlayerPro added "artwork" based on this small amount of info. Pretty cool.
The only downside verses WinAmp and the stock Music app is the PlayerPro only "quiets" the music for Nav, it doesn't silence it.
Since I'm playing Guinea Pig, any other music players anyone is curious about?

I got that update too...while I was at work and I forgot about it until now...gonna go give it a test.
EDIT: Got caught up by the post-time-limit...tested, doesn't sound "jumbled", but doesn't "quiet" or pause the music...still no help.
I had the same problem with the same combo love poweramp its my only paid app I clicked off beats and viola clear as a bell. The music lowers volume then the directions are spoken and the music returns to normal volume. So if you love poweramp just shut off beats when using navigation

Have you checked your PowerAmp settings?
Go to Settings -> Audio -> Audio Focus.
Make sure both Short Audio Focus Change and Permanent Audio Focus Change is checked. I believe it should be on by default but I've noticed in some cases whenever I flash a new ROM on my original EVO, it's not checked by default and I've had to enable it.
RobertBohannon and wolfpack15, I will give them both a try and see what happens.
Update on PlayerPro and WinAmp:
PlayerPro does the same as PowerAmp, it's just not as severely distorted.
WinAmp is almost perfect, but my head unit will only control track selection if the app is open and on screen.

Nail on the head, Short Audio Focus was unchecked.
Thanks so much, everything is working great!

How are various music apps working for you? All of mine keep crashing...fix?

OK...since moving to Jelly Bean (multiple ROM's tested) one thing that is a CONSTANT failure is music apps. Whether its Apollo, JetAudio, Rocket Player, PowerAMP, Google Music, etc they ALL crash or simply won't start/play music at all.
All my music is MP3 format so its not a compatibility issue. It happens on multiple Jelly Bean ROM's so that doesn't seem to be the issue either.
Thought it might be a issue with my SD card but everything else on it works fine (including movies and games) and putting music on the internal storage brings the same results.
I'm just at a loss here...first my GPS doesn't work (on Straight Talk...still haven't fixed this) and now not even my music will work? I'm starting to think my Note is screwy...but these are honestly the only issues I've had so far.
If anyone knows anything just let me know, thanks!
I had to go back to an ICS ROM to get Google music to work.

Were other music apps behaving badly as well or was it just Google Music?
Well, I pulled the battery and reinstalled PowerAMP and it seems to work fine now.
I guess I gotta get used to the fact that Android/Note/Jelly Bean is like BlackBerry where to fix a problem you just have to pull the plug and restart!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1930482
Includes Sony walkman as an add on, just follow the links
The only issues I had was none of the players start a song and crash. Restart app and good from then on

I was running CM10 and had a running app that announces the distance every mile. Once the first announcement was made all other music apps would no longer work ( mort player and poweramp) . Had to reboot to get things going again.
I went back to ICS because of too many bugs..

Have you tried going into settings/apps/currently running... and do a force close of any music app that's running? You may have to hit close more than once. That works for me

Jelly Bean Audio Issue

ok i dont know if there is a fix and i had tried to find, but everytime i reboot i have have to open my audio play, whether it be google music or mog or any music player and then i have to kill it then reopen and music works. does anyone know of a fix for this to avoid in having to open and kill it on every reboot? thank u,
I cant be the only one with this prob. Come on
I cannot honestly say I have heard of anyone on JB that has such an extensive issue with Audio...
I have run JB since I got the device and besides some early issues that have already been resolved... it was still never as bad as your experiencing!
I can only say to try and go back stock 100%, then once you have go through samsung kies and do the emergency firmware restore/wipe thingy, then try going back to a freshly downloaded copy of the JB rom of your choice...
Sorry your having so many issues
It is actually only when i play music from the device not streaming. I flashed the same rom on a stock ics note and they have the same issuez.

That was really hard to read.
Are you saying that you have no sound upon booting, until you open a music file?
If so, what music effect apps do you have installed? Check in the sound panel, inside the settings app.
Do you have Volume+, MusicFX, or Volume Boost? Anything like that?

when i open up google music, i click on a file and it just hangs, until i kill the app reopen then the file starts up normal, this happens everythine i reboot i have to do this after i do that its fine until i reboot again, also when i stream music it is just find its only when i play music on the device, this also does the same with MOG
Audio hang on i717 with Jelly bean
I have the same problem but not with every music app. Power amp works no problem but the apps I use for audio books Mort Audio Book Player or Smart Audio Books do not work unless i force close and then reopen. I have sometimes avoided the problem by opening a book in an alternate method so I suspect it may be something related to how the apps store the position in a track.
I also had problems with Map my run a run tracking app that can announce when you have run a certain distance. Map my run would capture audio focus and never release it. So my music would go silent until reboot. I am running CM10 stable but think I'll go back to CM9 becuase i use the audio book apps a lot and am too impastient and easily irritated to keep having to force close the apps. I have even had to battery pull on occasion but probably only because I was too impatient for the phone to come back online.
