Before you all yell at me for making another thread about this (I know one exists, that's what I originally found when I searched), this is a different issue.
I'm sitting here in my office at work playing music off my TF, and everything goes well for a while. Then about 30 minutes in, the speakers will start constantly popping during playback. It starts out softly, then gets progressively worse (to the point where it sounds like a dirty record).
However, the first time it happened, I held down the power button and rebooted the TF and that fixed it. Then about 30 minutes later, it started happening again. So instead of rebooting, I decided to try force stopping the Music app (I'm using Google's Music) to see if it's a software issue. And boom, the popping is gone after restarting Music. Weird. Because it sounds like it should be a hardware issue... but restarting the app making the audio seems to fix it. Next time it happens I'll try just opening up Youtube and seeing if it persists.
Anyone else getting this? I'm on stock un-rooted 3.1.
Hey, I seem to have this problem as well,
and only in the Music App.
I'm using headphone to listen to music,
and it just happened about 5 minutes ago,
I decided to unplug the headphone and replug it and it seem to fix the problem,
and then when it happened again, I switched to the Youtube app immediately and the sound was perfectly normal in Youtube.
So I'm suspecting its actually the Music app's issue.
may I ask if you are listening to music you stored online or from your device?
Are you streaming the music? Using any apps like equalizer or volume+?
Also happened to me today for the first time...and I am using volume+
I guess ill turn it off if it happens again and see if its that.
This happens to me when listening to music and the transformer sleeps, it takes a good 3 minutes then finally changes tracks. Once changed though I get this cracking nose also.

Same thing happens to me only when listening to google music. Will play normally at times, then popping will suddenly happen. I've listened to Squeezebox streams on my TF for extended periods with no popping, so I also suspect it has something to do with google music.
It would be nice to narrow down the cause and come up with a workaround.
used to have this problem when using older version of thumb keyboard, the typing sound produced this cracking noise. but fixed when I upgrade the thumb keyboard ;-)
+1 here.
Headphones, using Music player. I'm not using any special other apps to boost volume output. My headphones work just fine with any other device.
Unplugging and reconnecting the headphones seems to fix the issue. I haven't tested to see if this is exclusively with just the Music app or not.

Same issue, unplugging headphones fixes.
Running an OC kernel w/ Voodoo Sound, and Prime 1.4. Kinda points to an issue with software, I don't think i can blame the Player, more like the drivers/OS. Getting into a grove coding, i left my headphones on with no songs playing, and there was still an occasional crackle.
Really bummed, because this is a sweet music playback device with quality headphones and an amp'd signal.
Update: Flashed Asus 3.1 with CW Recovery mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112527) and popping gone. Still running OC kernel.
Hi im having issues with music playback on my SGS. its running 2.3.4 and is CW Rooted. my phone was working fine until my power button got sticky and would not work. so i sent the phone away and it came back fixed with factory Droid 2.2 a week or so later. i took it home and updated rom to same one above and rooted it.
it was not until i put my music on it and started playing through my stock SGS head phones that i noticed that the sound was faint and kinda muddy. like the sound you get when the audio jack is not plugged in.
i checked the plug and its very firm and makes a click. i rebooted phone, checked setting of the music player and its all fine. i tried winamp app to see if it was an issue with app and playback is the same. i even went into the service mode and changed diamond settings. playback is muddy and its driving me nuts. i have a Galaxy Tab i have same songs and used the same phones and playback is fine. matched the setting in the music player and its fine? i have looked at forums for the last 2 hours
so im kinda out of ideas the only 2 things i can think of is that the Easy Phone Tunes program i synced my phone with has somehow messed the songs up or maybe 3.5mm imput jack is faulty? has anyone had the same issue? or have any ideas what it could be? and if its the jack is there a way to clean the jack and test before i take it back to get it sent away?
Everything was fine and dandy for me with 4.3 MK2, but with towelroot out I figured now was a good time as any to update. Update to 4.4.2 NAE was fine using Odin, except now I'm having some audio related issues that I'm wondering if it's because of NAE or if it's because of an update gone wrong (corrupt piece somewhere). Basically experiencing two issues
one - audio skips every now and then even when I'm not actively using the phone. This is happening to me in Rocket Player, Spotify. I'll have music playing, screen off, and for no reason I can see the audio skips. Immediately after the skip I'll check CPU usage using CoolTool's graph and don't really see any big spikes.
two - while in Rocket Player, MX Player, VLC or Spotify if I press the volume up button the system freezes for about 6-8 seconds before the app is responsive again. during this I can switch back to the Home screen, but the app I was in is unresponsive. this is even when I'm in the app, but not actively using the app (no music/movie is being played). if I have music playing, but I switch to the Home screen, the button works fine.
anyone run into either of these two problems?
When I bought the device 2,5 months ago I had no issues at all, but a few weeks ago I started noticing a lot of white noise when listening to music through the headphone jack on my Note 4, especially the right headphone. I have the feeling the issue started when I updated to NK4, but I'm not sure, so I don't want to downgrade just yet, since I have a lot of app data and it's quite a hassle to make a back up.
I was wondering if anyone else experiences this issue. I know it's present on some Nexus 5 and LG G3 devices as well. I have taken it to the Samsung store and they tried with their headphones as well and the issue persists. It gets even worse when I'm in the car using an aux cable to my car radio. Every time I accelerate or decelerate I hear a howling noise. Also when I'm just using the phone, not listening to any audio at all, all system sounds and notification sounds turned off, I often hear a clicking sound. At first I thought the back cover was a bit loose and made this sound, but it's actually coming from the speaker.
The issue is present in several apps: Youtube, TuneIn, MP3 Player and Google Play Music.
Is there anyone else who experiences such issues, because I'd rather not bring my phone in for repairs, as here in Holland that might take 2 to 6 weeks? And does anyone know if it is a software or a hardware issue, if anyone has found that downgrading might be a fix, I'd be happy to try that.
One if the better features on marshmallow was to allow the connection of Bluetooth head phones for audio, within regular apps this works flawlessly such as youtube, crunchyroll and the lean back launcher. Within Kodi there is always a silence gap of anywhere from a few seconds to 20 seconds at the beginning of anything been played, even if it does start to work as soon as you skip or pause the silence is back. I can see there were people complaining about this issue months ago and then nothing so I'm wondering if I've screwed something or people just don't use bluetooth headphones.
Currently I'm using the latest stock marshmallow and the official Kodi v16 (though I've tried them all with the same outcome). Also it happens with any file format.
Anyone have any suggestions?

I have the same problem. I think it has something to do with the quality of the streams in kodi or the cache size. However, I have no idea how to resolve it. What I do is I start the movie with earphones turned off and once it is playing then I turn on the earphones and it works. If I pause I lose the audio again.
