I've been using the LG G Watch for a while now and I'm really loving it. However, I noticed that the music controls don't seem to work properly.
When I play a track on my Nexus 5 via Google Play, the artwork and title appear on the watch face, but pausing / playing don't work and I can't skip or go back a track, either.
As far as I can see I'm using the latest version of the Google Play Music APK and the watch is running the latest firmware. I've also tried resetting the watch and re-syncing the apps on it.
Another thing to note is that I'm running the Android L Developer Preview - not sure if that makes any difference.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Glad I'm not the only one getting this. Google Music updated today, but the issue is still there.
Same issue here on Google Music, Pocket Casts, and Player.FM - kinda annoying!
Same here, went back to 4.4.4 as many apps were having this problem (Google Music, Google Movies, Youtube)
Same issue for the Samsung Gear Live with Nexus 5 L preview.
Same issue here, works on HTC one m8, but not on nexus 5 and 7 running L. I assume its a problem with the way L handles music controls in notifications.
Happens to me with Spotify, the notification shows up but the play/pause control doesn't work. Using a Gear Live with a Nexus 4 running CM 10.2.1 (Android 4.3). However, Spotify works perfectly for a friend using a GS4 running KitKat connected to a LG G watch.
Got mine today, running Android L preview also and having the same issue. Anyone know of a fix/update on its way perhaps?
I do know that persistent/non-cancelable notifications are not mirrored to Wear for ANY app. That's usually the type of notification used to show playback controls, but it doesn't explain why the apps that have been updated don't seem to work correctly.
I also had this problem with L installed. I've since reflashed the stock 4.4.4 image, and they work fine.
Can anyone confirm whether this issue has been fixed in L yet?
It's one of the only things keeping me from using L on my everyday phone.

It will be fixed in the full release. But the dev preview won't be updated.
I thought I was the only one. So we have to wait for the Android L official release, hopefully it won't be to long
Same for me
I have the exact same issue with my Nexus 5 and Android L preview build LPV81C. Hoping it get fixed before full release. Fingers crossed ...
I have the same problem with my G Watch and Nexus 4 (running stock 4.4.4).
Anyone found a solution?
Edit:
Not a problem anymore, it was caused by an app for controlling my headset... -_-
I have the same problem with stock Nexus5 and Samsung Gear Live
I have the notification on gear of some song and when i try to "open on phone" none happens. If i try to play nothing happens again
BUT, if i open an music app (like Google music) and tap play on wear, then spotify (and this is strange) starts to play (a song different from that reported by wear notification).
This don't happens until i don't start an music app (seem that when i start a music app something will be initialized).
I also think that the notification on wear is something of old that has been stored by wear but not updated (probably after a spotify update).
Hey guys, try Wear Music Controller in the Play Store. It should control all your music players for you!
I have the same issue with you.
same here
Recently got my moto 360, doesnt work as well. Safe to say its the L preview bug.. But so disappointing

Thanks man works great.:good:
Hi, I've run into this same weird bug on two Nexus 9s that I've used, one on (stock) Android 6.0.1 and the other on the N Preview: when I switch to another app after playing a Netflix video, the display suddenly gets incredibly glitchy and the device becomes unusably unresponsive. The only fix is to hold down the power button until the tablet reboots. This doesn't happen every time I use Netflix, but frequently.
Having seen this on two Nexus 9s (neither is rooted) running two different (stock) Android versions -- and having never encountered this before on any other device -- I was sure I'd find lots of talk about the bug online. Weirdly, I don't see any. Is anyone else seeing this? If it's just me, I imagine the bug must have to to with a nasty interaction between Netflix and some other app I'm running? (GMD? Pie Control? Glovebox?)
Thanks for any help!

Hi all,
One of my most used apps is Plex. I use it to watch media from my home Plex server.
When I open this up on my Redmi Note 3 Pro Global (Snapdragon), it straight away crashes. I am using a "kate" model with MIUI 8 Global 6.9.8 (Android 6.0.1).
Does anyone else out there use Plex? Is it working on your Redmi Note 3 Pro? Is there a fix I can do to make it work?
Thanks!
For me it´s the same.
Update - I put CM13 on my "kate" device. Plex still crashes.
Could it be hardware related?
Anyone else having trouble connecting this phone to Chromecast 2? I have no trouble connecting my Redmi 3 pro but my wife's RN2 just connects and the immediately disconnects.
Hi, i don't have problem to connect to chromecast. I use with Netflix, Plex, Youtube & Tunein Radio.
I also don't have any problems using chromecast (mainly youtube) with my redmi note 2 (prime edition). Maybe the problem is ROM related. Or you could try to clear cache/dalvik cache - maybe a little bit buggy
He means screen mirrorring problems, not app related casting, like youtube etc. Screen mirrorring is not working with chromecast 2 on latest stable roms, not even on the latest developer roms. Previous stable roms, there weren't any problems. I started a bug thread on the official miui forum. In xiaomi.eu they can confirm this bug as well, I have it too.
I am unable to use voice commands in the Amazon prime music app.
When i say "alexa" the blue circle appears, but from then on the app doesn't respond to any voice command.
It's a MI A3 european version, rooted, untouched /system.
I tried deleting cache and data, reinstalling the app, activated/deactivated permissions, and what not.
The Alexa app itself works flawlessly, responds, plays music...
Some guy with a Redmi K20 faced the same issue, but in his thread there was no solution:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/help/alexa-amazon-prime-music-t3950119
Does someone have the same issue, or, even better, a solution?
Same problem here. Xiaomi mi 9t, miui 11
