Hello,
My phone has been having odd audio issues after I updated to Android Q. I had an app where I disabled an option for Bluetooth audio stutter reduction and it seemed to fix the issue, but it doesn't seem like an option available to other apps I have.
Is there a way to fix this? I have a couple screen recordings with examples of this. It mostly happens with games, with little to no issues with other apps.
As I am a new user, I am not allowed to post links in my messages. Email me at [email protected] for the clips if you would like.
Thanks!

Hey together. I'm a noob *duck* - but I did quite some search on google and on these forums before posting, and I'm not a very stupid noob.
Today I got the situation that no audio is audible any longer from my browser, games, audio apps, or from an audio player (all of them previously worked). This is the case for headphone and also the built in speaker. The problem occurred very likely after using skype. I also still have audio in phone calls and also I still have sound for ringtones and other alarms. Handset functioms all still work fine.
The first obvious thing I did was checking volume settings in the android settings. There I moved all sliders - the one responsible for regular audio did not give me any feedback. If I use the volume buttons on the phone while I'm on my home screen I get audible feedback - but that doesn't influence my problem.
Funnily the sound in skype still works. More funnily: during skype calls the audio from my browser or the audio player is also audible (I tried this just out of couriousity as I suspected Skype to be the cause of my problem. Et voila - I got sound from a TV News page and also from the Walkman app while the call on skype was still running. As soon as the call in Skype ended the audio from browser and adio player got muted again.
I also tried to kill skype during a call in order to kill it before it can again mute the audio - No luck. as soon as the skype app is killed also the audio from audio player and Browser vanishes.
I also tried some audio apps - all have the same issue of having no sound.
I then tried different apps which control volumes - without any luck. So at the moment I don't have audio, except during skype calls.
I guess that skype has either access to some hardware settings which aren't used usually (I hated skype for things like this as long as it had existed) - or I'm missing something very obvious. Or something else. Does anybody of the developers here know about linux settings I could modify? (is there something like alsamixer which is only possible to access via jni or similar?)
// Edit:
Just found out that toggling airplane mode ON I have sound for media (audio player, browser). (but also lose the ability to use my cellphone and network). As soon as I switch back to airplainmode OFF also audio is muted again. And for sure - I also tried rebooting in different states of my phone quite often without any difference.
// Edit 2:
looks like I found a workaround but no permanent solution - I installed an app SoundAbout (free app) recommended for similar problems in an other thread: 89996-galaxy-s3-media-volume-stuck-mute.html (I have now put output permanently to "headphones" for media sounds. However as soon as this setting is reset to the default (let app decide) it is muted again when airplane mod is set to off - looks like an other app resets it? (could not find any app obviously doing this though as I stopped the usual suspects)
I still suspect Skype as the original reason for this problem as I just recently had it updated when the problem appeard and it also messes with this kind of stuff during usage (and I don't really use other apps dealing with audio except of browser, music player which weren't updated for a long time).
Maybe also of concern:
It's an sony xperia p, running Android 4.0.3 and it is currently rooted.
I recently updated my stock HTC One to 4.3 via the ota update, and I now have some odd occurrences regarding how it syncs up with my car for media playback. I have a 2012 Toyota Camry which has a display that shows me song title, artist, etc. and before the update I had options for enabling random playback and repeat, which are now not there. Also, before if I had shuffle enabled it would advance the track numbers sequentially however now it skips around to random numbers between 1-16 I believe. It doesn't really affect the performance of anything, just my OCD does not like how that works now . For the record, I'm using the stock music player and have not downloaded any 3rd party players (yet, unless that's what is recommended).
Is this something that others experience? I've tried searching and I haven't found anyone with this specific issue (maybe because it's not really worth messing with to most), but it kind of irked me to update and have fewer options than I had before. I'm also curious as to what all needs to be in place for all of the possible information to be displayed in the car, as others have connected random devices and some will not display track information, some will not display where you are in the song, etc. I'm sure a lot has to do with the car, but anything that can be done on the device to make it more compatible with these sorts of things I'd be interested in knowing. Thanks!
Bump, or if there's already a discussion on this that my searching missed just let me know.
I've been looking for days on end, but I can't seem to find an app that fixes the delay in bluetooth speakers. For example, it would fix the delay for netflix so the sound matches the video.
I think that this delay is all software based, because Chrome and YouTube don't have delay, but most other apps do.
I was thinking, if this hasn't been created yet, which I don't know why because so many people complain about delayed bluetooth speakers, that it can't be that hard to create.
Like for example, just make it so you open the app, and it puts a sort of slider in the notification bar for you to adjust whatever is on the screen to sync with the video.
or maybe have the app open other apps from inside it and work like that? I have very little experience in coding,
So if anyone could explain to me why an app that syncs the screen with the audio doesn't exist, please tell me!
little more details, I'm using the speaker on my new Nexus 7 2013, and I also have a Nexus 4.
the speaker is a Jawbone Jambox. I bought so I could watch Netflix without headphones, but that's the only app the speaker isn't in sync, apart from.. every single game application.
thanks for any replies!
Is anyone using Tiny Cam Monitor Pro with Foscam FI8910W wireless IP cams? I use these as baby monitor cams, and i am having an issue with audio lag. The longer I have the monitor on with sound enabled, the audio gets delayed longer and longer. After about 8 hrs, the lag is something like 7-10 seconds. Video is still live, but audio lags. I have this issue on two different tablets. Also tried using the cameras IP address directly as well as the "house" IP address.
I've emailed the dev a few weeks ago, but have not received a reply.
Thanks
Old thread, I know. I wanted to post up and say that I'm having the exact same issues with another device. I don't thing it's the Galaxy itself, but maybe the way TinyCam or Android handle the incoming audio data. I'm wondering if there is something in Tasker that can be used to empty an audio cache every half hour or so to keep the audio a little closer to the actual video feed. Any other insight anyone?
Update from TinyCam Pro developer

I did finally get a reply back from the dev 3-4 months after my last post. He was able to duplicate the issue and he said it was an issue with the Foscam cameras. He said he would try and tweak something to get it to work. I have not seen any updates that addressed the issue. All that needs to happen to get the audio back in sync is to toggle the speaker icon. I;m not familiar with Tasker, but that is all that needs to be done as a work around.
I get extremely low mic volume when recording voice notes I know this is not an OS or hardware issue because the mic works perfectly on other apps including Instagram or telegram voice notes.
It is so low that I literally have to place the bottom mic on my lips to get a half decent volume recording level. This problem also doesn't exist in the Whatsapp Business app.
A temporary work around I found is to activate another app using the mic like any other voice recorder set actively to recording and then switch to Ehatsapp and record your voice note. Whatsapp support have proved entirely useless with canned responses every time I email them.
Just the normal and beta version of the standard Whatsapp messenger. I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue.
Hello. I 'm having the same issue since some months ago.
I were not able to find a solution yet. Just received the update 11.2.7.7 but have not tried if this helped to solve the issue or not.
I checked with telegram and realized, the issue was only shown in whatsapp.
I'm yet to receive this update. It should reflect in a few days though. Kindly let me know if this update fixed it
Did you guys find a fix for this?
