General media control - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

past android devices i have had, media button widgets like Media Buttons
was able to control whatever media i was listening to such as pause pandora and skip to next song, pause and restart tune in radio stream, pause i heart radio stream, as well as control google play music, but on my nexus 7 no matter what app i am listening to it wnats to control only play music, so if i am listening to pandora and hit the next button it pauses pandora and plays the next track on play music.

How to Stop Music Player?

When I get into my car (w/ BT connection), the phone connects to BT and resumes playing music. How can I stop (not pause) the music player so that it doesn't automatically resume playing?
I'm asking because I normally listen to podcast in car and right now both podcast and music player automatically starts when the phone gets BT connection. I just want the podcast to resume playing but not the music player.
Press+hold home button until the MRU apps popup appears. Click "Task Manager". Click the End button for the Music app, killing it.

[Q] How do I browse the web and play music at the same time?

Hey gang, new TF owner here. I want to play an MP3 in Winamp and surf the net at the same time. How come every time I go to switch applications (by leaving Winamp running, I just hit the home button to start a new app) - the music stops playing.
I'm a little disappointed that I haven't figured out how to do this yet. Anyone have this figured out?
I don't know about WinAMP, but I use the Google Music app and the music doesn't stop when switching apps.
Winamp also plays music in the background, regardless of app switching. Even continues playback even while the screen is turned off, if I recall.
Mine doesn't stop or exit music keeps playing and a notification is added to the bar.
I can confirm on my tablet, Winamp does not keep playing when I switch apps. If it matters, I am using the headset port. Maybe I'll try it without the headset and see if it does.
Maybe the headset port shuts off when the screen goes into sleep mode.
Ok yes, when I am NOT using the headset port, apps play in the background. However, when I use the headset port, the music shuts off when the app is switched (and also when the screen goes into sleep mode).
What's up with that?
I haven't tried Winamp specifically, but every other music app plays in the background no problem with or without headphones plugged in. Music, TuneIn Radio, and iHeartRadio are three that come immediately to mind.
I just download Winamp so I can test and WITH headphone I can multitask and listen to music just fine.
Music still play when screen shut off also.
My built in music player is the same way.

Losing Bluetooth headset controls after playing music for a while

If I play music with Google Play Music for a while via a Bluetooth headset, I am losing the headset controls, meaning skip, pause, volume have no effect anymore.
I can fix this by turning on the display and manually pause and resume the music. Then the headset controls do work again.
Anyone else seeing this?

Media constantly pauses

For some reason my Moto G4 Plus whenever I play music or any media wether through YouTube, Spotify, or Pandora will constantly just pause itself
