Annoying audio stutter - HTC One X+

Hello,
I was unable to find anything on the problem I am having with my stock HTC One X+.
When listening to music often there would be stutter. Sometimes more than once in one song, other times it wont happen at all.
The stutter sounds like: song playing>stutter>song plays in lower volume for no more than one second>stutter>continues normally.
Oh and also there is this other thing when a song starts then there is a brief moment that the volume lowers and then goes up again to normal. On PowerAmp Music Players.
I hope I explained my problem well.
Phone is HTC One X+
Android 4.2.2 with Sense 5, but using Next Launcher
This happens on every music player i mainly use PowerAmp.

Have you tried to reboot your device? Does this happen also during games?

The problem is PowerAmp. In PowerAmp's audio settings disable direct volume control.

I tried what sixcarnage suggested but it didn't do an good.
The problem doesn't occur in games, but on every music player and not with Poweramp only, I have tried a few and it was the same. I hqve turned off EQ, beats audio and SRS and the problem is still present.
And no restarting does not work.

I experience sometimes audio problems while playing games, but those are random and rare, a reboot helps me always.
What about headphones?

Now that I played for a longer period of time on a game with music the stutter also happens in a game.

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] Loss of Sound

Hi Guys, got a bit of a problem!
I've connected my SGS II to my car stereo vis 3.5mm jack. The music will play fine through the stereo, then suddenly the music disappears. It is still playing on the player but no sound is played. i've tried various media players (stock, power amp, mixzing, player pro)same thing on all of them. tried flight mode. Same thing. Its totally random, music can last 20mins or 20 seconds before it goes off. Anyone got any ideas or had a similar problem??
Thanks, Keith....

Does it happen when your phone goes of to sleep ? Try using a car dock and then testing the same if the phone is docked and music is not disrupted
Mine goes into pause mode randomly (my thread here)
When I first got my phone and started having the random pauses I found some other people for whom it just stops. I can't recall hearing of your problem, where the player appears to still be playing but without sound
Thanks guys, think i've traced the problem to a conversion box for the Bose amp in my car.....

[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?

Audio stops working

Has anyone experienced an audio problem where any audio playback will stop after a split second? Basically when I press the play button the audio will play for a split second then stop on its own. Once this happens all audio playback in different apps behave the same. I tried Spotify, Amazon Prime Music, Google Music and an audiobook app. I had this happen twice in the past couple of weeks. Reboot fixes it.

Speaker issue, only works sometimes

So I got the Kate version of this phone for a couple of months and I really like it. But today, it stopped playing sound from the back speaker when using media apps like Spotify and Youtube. If I plug in my headphones, it works just fine though.
Here is the fun part: If I start a song on spotify, go into settings>sound and change the volume for the notification with the slider, the sound of the notification is played from the speaker as the volume is adjusted. When the sound has played, it resumes playing the sound from spotify. But when the song ends (and another one begins) or I skip to the next song, the sound is gone again. As I am running custom rom(Aosp Extended), I'd thought it was just some weird bug. I did a complete reflash of another rom, Pure Nexus, but I still have the same problem. What could be causing this!? I have never experienced this with any other phone. At first I thought the speaker was broken, but it does seem to work. I still get notification and ringtone sound if I get a text or somebody calls me.

No one has found a solution to this?
