Problem with the volume setting - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using an old tablet for internet radio. As software I use TuneInradio. Unfortunately there is a problem with the volume setting and the active boxes: The tablet is always switched on. We only switch on the speakers when necessary. Unfortunately the tablet adjusts the volume after a few hours so that nothing can be heard after switching on the speakers. Then I have to increase the volume on the tablet every time. The loudspeakers are connected via the jack socket. The tablet is rooted. Is there any software to prevent this? I use lineage 7.1

YP-GI1 lower volume after pausing

This is an issue that's been affecting my device from the beginning. Sometimes the volume feels louder than usual: to prove it's not just my imagination, if I pause the device (or switch to another song), after resuming the volume is sensitively lower, although I assume the latter is what is supposed to be the regular volume. In order to restore the 'louder' volume, I need to unplug and quickly replug my headphones, yet it doesn't always seem to work.
I've been wondering if it may be related to the volume limiter included in the drivers that gets somehow disabled and then enabled after I pause and resume.
Did anybody experience this?
I'm using the Uk version of the Yp-GI1, it mounts a stock rom (rooted) and my music player is Poweramp.

I have similar issues, but it doesn't occur often enough for it to bug me.
My symptoms are that sometimes after starting playing audio (I mostly listen to podcasts using DoggCatcher), I can barely hear the audio at all. Unplugging the headphones and plugging them back in fixes the issue.
I always thought that it was a slight defect in my headphone jack causing this. I know when I wiggle the headphone plug when it is plugged in, the audio cuts in/out. As such, I have always kind of figured the defect was associated with the mechanism in the headphone jack that detects when headphones are plugged in (or something else in the jack).
The other audio shift that I notice is associated wtih podcasts that are recorded at a low volume level. When I listen to these, I have to crank the volume. When I pause and then resume the podcast, the player reverts to a lower volume automatically, which I then have to turn up. I have assumed this was by design so that you don't blow your ears out!
I agree that podcast are recorded at a lower volume, I'm a big listener too, but my issue is slightly different. First off it occurs with every pair of headphones/earphones I plug into the device, none of which is faulty. Besides, I don't know how the louder volume is triggered, but I do know that pausing and resuming, or switching to another song turn the volume down of 20-30% and it stays lower until I unplug and plug the headphones again...

Auto audio reduction via Car AD2P

yesterday i had long drive over 1 hour
and suddenly the volume reduced to 50%.
the phone displayed a warning about "hearing damage"
(tried to take SS via the power menu but it got closed that way , and it was hard while i drive and couldn't press power + volume down the other way to took SS)
happens to anyone? ver 32.2.a.5.11 (6.0.1MM)
(it wasn't really loud of course , because i using the car volume and the phone always maxed out ,if not the sound very weak even if the car at 100% )
If you're using a 3.5mm cable to connect to the car, then yeah. It might have recognized the cable as a regular headphone, that's why it reduced the volume. I use the same setup and it also happens to me often.

earphone volume too loud only in calls

Hi all,
I find out that on my wileyfox swift 2+ the volume in calls are definitely too loud when the earphones is inserted, even if I set the lowest audio level from menu, equalizer app or while calling, while having good volume sound when playing sounds from any application (not in call), with or without earphones (yeah, it could be a bit higher, but for me is ok).
I tried two type of earphone (xiaomi hybrid and another pair of samsung) but everyone is experiencing the problem. It's not a problem of telephone card, I tried 2 different cards and nothing changed.
I'm the only one who is experiencing this problem? what do you recommend?
Thanks.
Yep, I have exactly the same problem with my Swift 2+. I've also tried several sets of headphones, plus a couple of volume control apps. I have tried engineering mode, but *nothing* reduces the volume to an acceptable (non-painful) level. I've used the same headphones successfully in a Samsung Galaxy S2, which proves that it's the Wiley Fox phone.
Is this a hardware issue? Am I going to have to solder a resistor into the headphones to reduce the volume?
If I'm not able to find a solution soon then I will have to buy another phone, and it won't be WileyFox.

Disable software/digital volume for USB audio?

I have a USB DAC that I have paired with Android devices running 4.x in the past (working because the vendor went to the trouble of adding USB DAC support to their JB or KK ROM) . The DAC has no digitally-controllable volume, and in fact I want to control the volume solely using its analog knob. My pre-Lollipop devices honored this and would output to the DAC bit-perfectly.
When I try to use this DAC with an Android release that officially supports USB DACs (Lollipop and newer), however, it appears that Android introduces a software or digital volume control into the mix. This is supremely annoying since it means that there are now two volume controls (the one on the DAC and the one in software) that I have to fiddle with.
There has got to be a way to disable the software mixer in Android 5.0+ when using an external DAC. Does anyone have any idea how this might be done? Assume root access is no problem.
Thanks!

I would even accept an answer that simply caused the media volume control to automatically get set to "max" when the USB audio was plugged in. As things sit, half the time I plug my USB audio device in, media volume gets set to 50%, which is where the majority of my annoyance comes from on this issue.

I seem to talk to myself a lot around here...
I managed to find at least a passable fix for this problem. The free & open source app "A2DP Volume". It actually *doesn't* support USB audio DAC attachments as an event (at least currently; I suspect it wouldn't be that hard to add support and perhaps I will pursue that at a later date), but it *does* support "Power Connection" as an event to key off of, and it so happens that in my particular application, my DAC is being powered not by the phone but by a different source (powered hub) which also sends power back to the phone; thus, when I'm using the DAC, the phone is also receiving a charge.
The only minor downside is that there is no way to distinguish the connection to the DAC + power from just power alone, so when I plug the phone into any charging source, A2DP Volume sets the "media volume" to max. However, that's a small price to pay, and honestly I don't really care.
I still don't like that the media volume can be turned down while the DAC is plugged in by bumping the physical volume rocker after it has been set to max (was never a problem with Jellybean or Kitkat), but it will definitely do for now and is *worlds* better than having to mess with the media volume right at the outset.
Hope this helps someone else,

S9+ Exynos media volume sync stopped working

Dear Community!
Today my GS9+ Exynos stopped supporting my BeatsX wireless earbuds. Suddenly the music volume dropped but on the phone it was the same value i used to listen to. The problem is that the media volume sync stopped working. It says, my bluetooth device is not supported. But it was as you can guess. I have rebooted the phone, cleared the cache, cleared the bluetooth app data, reconnected the headphones, reset the headphones, turned on/off absolute maximum volume in developers settings, tried another app, but it wont sync the volume of the bluetooth device with my phone. Its loud, and perfect as it was but i wanna control the volume on the phone, with the buttons on the earbuds.
I really hope that you can help me.
Edit: I have solved the issue. Connect an other device that supports media volume sync. Turn the option off, then reconnect with the device that wont sync. When the device is connected to the phone, turn the option back again. It will let you change it now and it will work as well.
