Phone continiously resumes playing music from the Spotify app after being paused - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Lately I've noticed that when pausing music on the Spotify app, after some time it will start playing by itself again, and keeps turning back on no matter how many times I press pause until I force stop the app. I was suspecting it might've had something to do with the Google assistant as I've used it frequently to play off music, but turning it off made no difference. What could be the cause of this?

[Q] Bluetooth connections

The problem that I am having is that every time my phone connects to my truck (Ford sync) the music app opens and it starts playing. So I stop it and shut down the music app, but after I hang up from a call it starts back up. The first few days I had it there was no problem cause I didn't have any music on it yet, but now it does.
I have even gone as far as installing ATK and completely stopped that task, just to have it start up again after I hang up from a call.
Also, does anyone know if it is possible to get audio data over bluetooth?
I would like to see what song is playing over bluetooth on my dash.

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] Stop playing on disconnect

Hi,
Before custom ROMS were built on ICS, when I was listening to streaming music in my car (via bluetooth), the phone would automatically stop playing when the car turned off. Same thing if I'm listening to music and I pull the headphones out, whatever was playing gets paused.
Now, when I turn my car off, the music doesn't stop playing, it just starts playing through the phone's speaker.
So my question is, is it the ROM that makes a player pause on disconnect or is it the actual APP that decides to either stop or keep playing through the speaker.
I know PowerAMP has options to auto play and auto stop on disconnect, but other apps like youtube, Audiostation (for my synology NAS) and a few others don't have settings.

I think the fact that some apps have the option indicates that at very least, the app does have some control over it. I don't know if the ROM/kernel have some default setting built in for apps that don't define it.
It seems to be a feature missing in ICS. I'm hoping it shows up by the final update.
I use Tasker to accomplish the same thing. The whole task for media is when I plug headphones in, it launches a menu with media apps (music, netflix, etc) and turns the media volume up to 6. When disconnected, it mutes media volume, pauses media, and returns to the homescreen.
I'll take a look at that in the interim, all I really need is it just to pause on BT disconnect like it use to. The is already a separate volume setting for BT vs the headphone jack. Thanks for the tip.
That's interesting, I didn't know tasker had something to pause media. I'll definitely give that a try.
I believe that was an AOSP tweak..my Inc running CM7 would pause on bluetooth disconnect.

[Q] Play Music automatically starts playing

I have tunein pro running automatically when I plug in my earphones. Sometimes it automatically stops (due to loss of connection or memory loss?) and google music starts playing.
Kinda annoying other people now as when I take my earphones out, tunein automatically stops as it should, but google music takes its place and starts playing on speakerphone.. loudly..
Doesn't happen all the time but quite a nuisance to others, especially when in quite study rooms..

Music getting automatically Played or Paused at random.

Hi,
Latest stable miui 10.
I have noticed that music, whatever that may be last streaming app used or YouTube, they get automatically played even when device is in sleep mode.
Also, these app pause playback for no apparent reason.
It happens at least once a day. Sometimes it has happened in the middle of the night, waking me up.
It's most likely that headphone play/pause button event is getting triggered by something. And no headphones aren't plugged in.
