Hey all,
I searched around for a while but couldn't find anyone posting about this issue...So I manually upgraded to the .211 release using Matt's Utility 1.7 back when it was released, and I have had next to no problems on stock ICS except for this. One annoying issue that keeps occurring though, is my music starts playing automatically after I hang up from a call using bluetooth. This happens only when I receive a call and my headset is connected to the phone (both handset and A2DP profiles). It streams over the headset thru A2DP and I have to manually pause the music on my phone (or disconnect/reconnect the headset) to stop it. I use a Bose Series 2 headset and didn't have this problem on stock GB beforehand. Music is not playing before I receive the call.
I've found a temporary solution in disabling the A2DP portion of the connection manually in the bluetooth settings under the headset subsection.... but this is annoying because I have to keep turning it back on when I want to stream music or podcasts through the ear piece.
Any ideas as to why this is now happening?

Scion some app is telling it to resume after calling. Do you have any other music apps installed on your phone?

Just the built in "my music" app bloatware from Moto...also Pandora. I did disable a bunch of bloatware when I first started setting up the phone. I'll see if disabling/re-enabling the my music app has any effect... I've never had a problem with Pandora before but I could also try uninstalling that to see if it makes a difference.
Flashing the .215 leak fixed the problem... hallelujah

Hi. I am absolutely clueless with this.
I am used to having my phone paired with my car stereo which acts both as a headset and as a multimedia playback device. Im using this for a couple of years now and been doing that with iPhones, Galaxies and now the Atrix nad this has never happened before.
This is the problem. Ever since I updated to Gingerbread when I answer a phone call with my car stereo, and end the call, the default Music player on the android pops up and starts playing whatever is on the playlist. I can try and pause the audio and it will play again in a few seconds. I can even force close the app and it will pop open back again. It happened with the old Music, with the new Music (with Google Music support), with Grooveshark, Winamp, you name it.
Figuring it was happenning because of a faulty ROM I installed every single GB based rom out there, including the leak version, the official version, Kenneth's beta 4.5, Kenneth's Alien ROM.
I have factory reset and tried installing everything manually (not restoring through CWM or Titanium). No fix.
Any clues?
Any thoughts on this? Thank you.
I've found that the music player only works when no pre-installed or Google apps are on auto end. IDK why, but it has to do with interconnectedness.
The media player is reacting to the media pairing event as if a button was pressed.
I trap this using a Tasker profile triggered by the bluetooth connection to my car kit; the entry task grabs Media Button Events and the exit task releases them. This stops the media player launching.
Monkey see, monkey do.
If thats the problem then try headset interceptor and choose the app you want the button presses to be sent to...worth a short. Free app in the market.

Does anyone else have a problem with eclipse and bluetooth? I use a bluetooth stereo headset to listen to music and after a few minutes it cuts out and I have to reboot.
I use Bluetooth in my car and it works well. Not sure if its the same for headphones though.
Eclipse 2.0.2
I just sbf'd back to 2.3.4 and installed eclipse 1.3. going to see if that corrects it
I have a bluetooth stereo and I have disconnect issues as well on gbp7...not sure what the deal is, but I think it's the stereo cause the phone shows still connected and the audio doesn't get rerouted back to phone. You don't have to reboot, just toggle bt off then on. Plus the problem is random.
I never modified anything with the bt is why I think it's the stereo, but I ciudad be wrong. Ima try to get a log and see what the deal is.

So far music hasn't cut out...I believe it has something to do with v2.02 or the 2.3.5 update
2.03 is out now...
Maybe that will help ur issues?

Not to bust this, but on my end at least, I know I didn't mess up updating the device.
and the Eclipse 2.0.3 update does not change anything to bluetooth..
But I found the Problem.
By chance do you use Google Music as your default music app?
Anyway, I do and the problem is with that app(or maybe its in another setting which I doubt cause the problem persists on GBP7.)
Explanation:
I use a Bluetooth cd player in my car and I use google music to stream to my stereo. Every now and then I lose sound output on my CD Player(although both show connected). The problem would arise whether it was playing local music or streaming from google music. At first thought it was my phone, then I flashed Eclipse to test it out for a lil bit and the problem persisted. So I moved on to thinking it was the Stereo. Well, this morning I was at work(still am..) and I was listening to my music via ear plugs. I ended up getting a random "stop" although the music progress bar was still moving... I changed songs and still had no output. HERES THE KICKER!! I turned the volume up with the keypad and BAM! the sound started to produce out of my precious ear plugs....
I haven't had time to test this with the bluetooth stereo yet, but the problems had IDENTICAL symptoms, so I'm assuming this will work.
The random MUTE of the app is odd, and very random. Sometimes it wont do it for HOURS and then sometimes it will do it every 2 minutes or so. But for now, try to increase the volume(you can do this while screen is off if using Google Music, not sure about others) and see if it solves the issue for now. I will look into it and test with another music app(probably winamp) and see if the problem arises. If so, then I'll look into the system configuration and see if the problem is there. I know I didn't change any bluetooth settings in my ROM, and I haven't noticed any changes by Nitro in Eclipse. So this leads me to think its an APP problem.
I use juice defender and other custom settings for battery life, but I know for a fact those aren't the problems, so if anyone reading this looks into the issue, the problem is either Google Music or in the system configuration. So don't go looking into Juice Defender or other apps to be the problem.
Disregard...I am blind
Like stated.... It's not another app interfering.... Dsp manager is not on gbp7...

I havent seem to run in to anyone with this issue.
I pair my phone to my car stereo fine in the stock GB rom. Play music and talk on the phone endlessly.
But with any ICS version so far, even official. It causes reboots, randomly.
Am I the only one suffering from this?
Not the same, but something similar.
I can connect with my car stereo, have to do it twice (once for music streaming and once for handsfree). Once connected, i can stream music fine. Even the controls on my steering wheel work. When I receive a phone call sound is muted and i can talk fine as well.
After I hang up the phone, the music doesn't come back, only a 0.5 second stutter every 2-3 seconds. On my phone, in the music player I can see that it's my phone that has the problem; the visualisation displays exactly how i hear the sound.
This behaviour also occurs when I turn off my car and turn it on again.. there doesn't seem to be a single thing that i can do to get music to play again, just some fiddling usually gets it to work (but then i have to stop my car first before i can have music..)
If anyone has any ideas for troubleshooting let me know!
I honestly think ics has compatibility issues with certain bluetooth devices.
We can only hope they realize this and take measures to correct it.
Gingerbread is flawless.

Just a notice that this seems fixed for me now.
I've upgraded to the 4.0.4 Rom found here: Click!
Next to this i'm using the app "doubleTwist"
ICS talks a different language then gingerbread when it comes to A2DP, especially for the play/pause commands, which seem important to me..
A2DP issues
I find I have similar issue. I have a SONY bluetooth deck in my car and my phone will lock up and force restart mid song or mid phone call.
Anyone have any ideas apart from flashing that 4.0.4 Rom
Question for you guys .... I use Google Music but have noticed on my RAZR that often the bluetooth music control (like from my car stereo) only work when Google Music is in the foreground on my phone. It seems to be OK if it was in the foreground and I switch back to Navigation -- I can still control it. But if I start playback from my launcher using iSyncr widget things often get all screwed up and I can only get things right by going directly into Google Music... otherwise the controls on my car do nothing.
Anyone else notice this?
(Same thing happens when I stream A2DP to my laptop ...)
Another issue is I can't use the button on iPhone headphones with my RAZR. I had no issues with my Droid X but it won't answer/end calls nor control music playback. Is this normal as well?
could it be the widget?

Anything is possible -- although I've been using iSyncr since I first got Android and have never had similar issues.
I've been listening to music all day at work via Bluetooth and it's been working -- and that's without having the player in the foreground. So I don't know ... I wonder if it's the stock Motorola player stealing focus? I have never used it but it always seems to be running.
Also any idea on why the headset button doesn't work at all? Not even for call handling.

unless you are using the settings on the stock music player equalizer, I don't see a reason to not use task manager to end it, that may be what's causing a conflict. and I am unfamiliar with your headphones, I rarely use them. but when it do I have some nice sennheiser earbuds my wife got me. normally I use a jawbone jambox (bluetooth) at home and a wired (dynex) logitech speaker at work.

I think this may be a Samsung generic problem, but does anyone know if there is a way to stop notifications interrupting music playback without having to mute the phone? Really annoying having to do this every time.

I have exactly the same problem - it was not an issue when I was on the HTC One (M7). The S6 is a lovely phone, but I really want control over this.
The fix I have at the moment is the "Don't Pause" app, which detects when you are listening to music and puts the phone on vibrate, but what I really want is a subtle audio notification which does not pause the music or interrupt my podcast.

Thanks for the tip. Yeh, I'm coming from an M8 and it used to just play the notification over the top of the music which was fine as you usually couldn't even hear it anyway. I'll check out that app.
Thanks!
Seems to me like a software feature. Using the stock music player, notifications would pause the playback of music and then resume after. I didn't like this behavior either. I started using Poweramp. It has a "Short Audio Focus Change" option that I turn off. Now my notifications play over top of music.

I also come from HTC and this issue is driving me nuts. Even when notifications are muted my device is pausing when I use Google Messenger to SEND a text message. I've no idea why sending a message would cause my music player (Spotify) to pause briefly.
The same when I use my watch's "ok Google" feature - the music on my phone stops playing... that makes no sense to me. Why would the "ok google" feature of the watch pause the music on my phone while listening?
This also happens on Google Play Music. Really annoying.

If you use Lightflow, you may be able to do this by setting up your app notifications in Lightflow and then selecting "Audio Focus Ignored" in the Labs tab in Lightflow and it may fix it.
I know it worked on my Nexus 5 but I'm unsure whether it will work on the S6. It's worth a try if you're already using Lightflow for LED control.
More people are joining...and the plot thickens:silly:

Disable the outgoing sound in the settings of Google messenger to get rid of that issue.. But as for the rest, I've learned to live with it.

This is the most annoying thing ever about the Samsung S6. I just got it recently having switched from a One Plus One. Now I remember why I left Samsung before. This has been a recurring issue since the S1. On top of that, the audio notifications seem to be delayed and come after the vibration i.e. phone vibrates then and then the sound comes when a notification occurs.
Has anyone also experienced when headphones are plugged in with music playing and a notification occurs, the headphones cut off and music plays from the speakers?? This is especially frustrating when I'm on the bus or a quiet place.
Samsung really needs to fix this annoying issue.
hello everyone, i also was going through this annoying problem but for me i found the best solution on my galaxy s6, when im listening to my music . I went to settings clicked "sounds and notifications" then clicked "do not disturb" and turned it on . then scroll down on exeptions and u can turn off alarm , calls, messages . The cool thing is the notifications go throw u can see your notification light blinking and with no interruptions and once you stop listening to your music turn off "do not disturb" and everything back to normal. To me its the easy way on my galaxy s6 with out downloading extra apps and it works great ...
Hope it helped you guys out and can enjoy your music without any interruptions
Just to say "me too!". Sooooo annoying when listening to music or audio books. Can we some how let Samsung know about this?

I use Tasker to put my phone into "do not disturb" mode when my headphones are plugged in. I had it set up to go silent when I had my music app open before and found the headphone thing to be more effective. I haven't tried to just make it quieter, but it's probably possible.
Something to mess around with. Plus, Tasker does a ton of other cool stuff. Totally worth the $3 for the level of automation they offer.

Thank you that's been annoying the hell out of me but have changed settings now thank you! ?
This issue is still not resolved I take it? I cannot for the life of me figure out how to turn that crap off on my A3. I'm using Google Music.
When I listen to music the only thing that should interrupt is high priority communication. Basicly just phone calls and emergency/gouvernmental alerts. Evertything else is low-priority communications and won't ever take precedence over my music but I don't want to turn the notifications off completely.
The guy who figures having random whatsapp messages disturb your music experience obviously doesn't use his phone for listening to music while participating in several Whatsapp groups.
Hii everyone
I was facing same issue in Mi Max MIUI 8 running android MM.
I started using music folder player 2.1.4
preferences->behavior->handle audio focus->choose ignore audio focus.
Music didnt pause by incoming msgs (text,whatsapp, mails, etc).
Thanks.
Please share ur experience.

Wow you solved this for me after years of looking for a solution! Thanks!
For anyone interested, in Poweramp, go to Settings > Audio > Audio Focus and uncheck "Short Audio Focus Change"
Uconnect/ Bluetooth devices
I FOUND A FIX.
For me, using the Uconnect setup incoming sms message announcement did NOT work. It works ONLY for when you are listening to the radio. I like to use my music apps on my phone like Apple Music and like other people, Samsung Milk Music or others and when listening to this I would still get the extremely frustrating "New SMS message from (insert name) press uconnect phone button to..." blah blah and whenever I hit cancel to escape that long interrupt it would take 10 seconds to get back to my music and sometimes it would pause my music and while driving you cant simply go back in and play it. I figited with EVERYTHING. I tried the uconnect manual, I tried to disable notifications for both my message+ app I use and Apple Music and neither worked but the answer was much more simple than I thought. Here it is: go to your settings that has all the options like wifi, airplane mode etc... tap your bluetooth option and it should pull up not only the uconnect you have paired but all the otger bluetooth things you have paired. Next to it is a gear icon. Tap on that and it will appear all the thing uconnect has access to like media audio (music, videos) call audio, contact access and MESSAGE ACCESS. TURN THAT OFF. THIS WILL STOP INTERRUPTIONS DURING YOUR MUSIC APPS AND SUCH.
I have not used this with other bluetooth devices but it worked for my car and I hope it works for you too.
