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?

I've tried searching but the things that came up weren't the same problem I'm having. What happens is that when I'm listening to music, whether it be with headphones or the speaker, if I get a text, the music just loses all volume, the notification plays and then the volume turns back up on the music, it doesn't pause because when the music kicks in again it's at a different part of the song. It's very distracting and annoying. Anyone know how to fix that? I'm on Trigger 2.7 and it also happened when I was on the AOSPish rom. I converted from iPhone to Android and I love it so much more, but right now this is the one thing that the iPhone has on my Vibrant. I need to change that!
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.
Hello everyone,
I just get my SGS2, nice phone really and recently just flash to Litening ROM 6.1.
Now my problem is if I play music using headphones or speaker attached to the audio jack, when a notification sound ring (new SMS, mail, sending / receiving Yahoo Messenger text) the audio will pause for a moment and resume but not quite smooth.
Sometimes there will be delay which can be felt, or sound distortion when the music resumes (like a small 'bzzzt' sound). And this is only happening if I use external speaker plugged into the audio jack. Playing music using the internal speaker works just fine, surprisingly without any pause when notification rang.
This happened with various player I've tried, stock music player, PowerAmp, WinAmp, ProPlayer
Been searching google and xda forum for the past hour and all I can find is other people having this issue on their Galaxy S not Galaxy S II.
I'm really confused of what may cause this problem, I even tried reflashing the ROM, wiping data and dalvik cache and my music still stutters on notification. If there's anybody having this issue or anyone have a suggestion on what must I do to make this annoying problem gone.
Thanks for your reply
My top right speaker keeps blowing. It sounds like text message alerts, phone calls, and the alarm blow the speaker. I have been through 7 phones from bestbuy all the same exact issue. I try to keep the sound settings down but when I'm in call I have to turn the phone all the way up to hear who I'm talking to and dont remember to always turn the sound back down before I get another message or phone call and it blows the speaker. It will just crackle and first and then completely not work. Bestbuy is blaming me for it blowing but everything is stock settings and everything... Anyone else having an issue?
Do you have any volume or sound apps installed? There is quite a bit of power going to those speakers as-is, so any equalizers, or volume booster could possibly cause a short.
I had my volume at about 85% today listening to music, and not even the slightest crackle occurred.
Long story short, recently my earphone didn't make any sound when i play anything that is media volume related ( Music, Games, Youtube... didn't make any sound ), but i can still hear ringer sounds when changing the volume. Later i found that, the only way to make the earphone sounds is to change the ringer volume once so the phone can make a "bing" sound before playing any media, but if the media pauses for awhile, the problem will happen again.
I have tried to find the problem online : SoundAbout doesn't work, clearing cache isn't working either. What should i do now? I'm on Marshmallow 6.0.1
