I Updated my Magic to Rogers new image. Its working actually pretty well except for one very annoying and perhaps embarassing issue.
When a call comes in and I am listening to meridian or the builting mp3 player on my headset instead of the phone RINGTONE it starts playing the audio I am listinging to over the speaker.
Before the update it used to put my music on HOLD and then play the ringtone. if I declined or ansewer then hang up the music would be un paused.
this does not seem to be happening since the update.
Anything I can do to fix this?
Cheers

Just tried to reproduce the error, sorry didn't get the same bug.
Try repicking the ringtone from your music player?
Has anyone experienced an issue with their music player just skipping songs by itself? I'll be listening to a track and all of a sudden it'll just start skipping songs till it reaches the last song them just shuts off. I'm using the new tmo 2.13 rom btw.

Yes....the tags on my music tracks were messed up. You can fix them individually or just click update album art on your phone while connected to wifi. Reboot and it should work fine.
Not a Rom development issue Moving thread
When playing music via Google Music, sometimes the app skips to next song before the current one is done. Any idea why this is happening, and how to solve it?
My observations:
This happens during good internet connection (both on WiFi and 3G)
It happens to both "pinned" songs (cached) and the ones that are streamed. This happens even when the whole play queue is pinned (so there isn't a problem switching from cached song to streamed song)
All my music is via All Access subscription, so no songs are uploaded by myself (this eliminates the possibility of having a corrupt mp3 file)
After the music skips to next song, if I go back to the "problematic" song it plays fine to the end
This happens randomly to any song, and if a song skips once it doesn't mean it will skip again (this I find the most confusing)
Any help would be appreciated, this random skipping is frustrating!
P.S.: I have stock, rooted Nexus 4 running 4.3.

You could try to uninstall app or wipe the app data.
Are you using earphones or headphones?
Because it might matter.
I'm using Audeo PFE 112, so ones without any controls.
I've reinstalled Google Music, let's see if it helped..
Did you manage to get a solution to this? I've had the same problem on my N4 and previously my S3. I have noticed that it seems to happen when connected via Bluetooth. It seems to also be worse if I receive a notification, even if the notification sound is muted. if I use PowerAmp it's fine. In PowerAmp there are more options available to set the audio priority and buffer size. Could be down to that but obviously we don't have those options in the Play Music app.
I've got some more info that may be of use. It happens when I have an unread notification. It may not just be on Bluetooth as I don't read the notifications whilst driving obviously. This used to happen in PowerAmp when updating to Jellybean, however they fixed it. Makes no difference if notifications are on silent or if you swipe it from the notification bar, it has to be marked read.

I still have the problem. I will try to find out if it happens more when i get notifications and will report here..
This issue has been annoying the hell out of me for a few months now on my GNex on 4.3 (running AOSPA 3.99). Every time they push an update to the Play Music app I think "Finally!" assuming it will fix this issue, but no dice.
Mine is always on Bluetooth, and happens with streamed or pinned music. It will play whatever song I left it on when I last exited the player, completely, then the next song that comes up in the queue is the one that will skip after partially playing. I haven't timed it, but it's something like 20s or so. If I manually go back to the beginning of the track it skipped, it will play it completely to the end with no issues. I have found, from messing around with it, that if I proactively skip back/forward to another track manually before hitting "Play" it doesn't seem to happen. It's acting like when the player starts up, it "thinks" it received a "Next" button press via AVRCP and advances to the next song on its own.
Is that description consistent with what you guys are experiencing?

This is what I'm experiencing. Since it doesn't happen outside of that I'm not too upset.
This latest Google Play Music app update (5.2.1224L) seems to have fixed the issue for me.

Did anyone else have this fixed? As of today, the songs still skip for no apparent reason. Its happened on my GS3 and Nexus 7 2013. Both rooted and unrooted.
Same Issue
I'm still having this problem using my nexus 5 and Nexus 10. Both are running Android 4.4.2 and app version 5.4.1413N.1048534.
I'm having the issue too. I was originally using power amp and thought it was that. But i went back to Google play and it's more prevelent there. I not only get songs that skip, i get songs that play with the wrong name( songs father down the playlist play ontop of another song name) or it adds sounds that arent supposed to be there. Ive even had a song playing in slowmotion. I used to never have this happen. Last time i did a transfer of music ( pc to phone) was almost a year ago.
I'm using the LG L90-4.4.2
I have the same problem on my head unit 4.2.2. Is it possible to force the PRIORITY for google music app?
Same skipping problem
I am having the issue quite a bit on my home wifi with sonos system playing through sonos app. Every 30 minutes or so, 2 or 3 songs in a row will play about 5 seconds and skip to the next. Really annoying when you actually like the song it is skipping. I'm using iPhones, iPads and windows computer with the sonos and it does it will all computer types. I am not hitting buttons inadvertently. Did anyone figure this one out?
I have the same problem on my ZTE Z820 Obsidian.
I have this problem, but not with this phone. I think it is related to some aspect of Google music. I am using BubbleUPnP to stream to a Raspberry Pi 3 running RuneAudio which has the Debian standard MPD player embedded in it. BubbleUPnP runs on 2 Android phones - Samsung Galaxy S3 mini (4.4.2) and Moto G5 (7.0).
When I stream from my own UPnP server, fine. When the streaming source is Google Play Music, I get these symptoms. No internet issues, no mobile data, just domestic broadband and ethernet/wifi LAN. Every 3 or 4 songs it just skips to the next track half way through a song. Maddening.
Hi guys, I have the same issue with my One Plus 5T. Did you find a solution?
thanks in advance
The problem went away, but I can't remember why. I think it may have been to do with the buffer in RuneAudio which was too small/big. Or maybe a new version of Play Music came along. Sorry.
Marmite.
I've looked around and this was common awhile back, last year, haven't seen any recent posts about it though.
when i play music through google music app on my G2 it will pause randomly, and pretty frequently. it will go through stretches where it auto pauses every like 5 seconds, as soon as i unpause and set phone down it pauses again. then it will be fine for a few songs then states pausing again.
this happens when streaming over wifi, or cell signal. also while playing music that is stored directly on my phone so no streaming issue. also happens while connected over bluetooth, headphone jack, or just playing from phone's speakers, so no bluetooth or headphone jack connection issue.
is there anyway to stop this?

I am having the exact same issue. Multiple sets of headphones as well. This is kind of a scary thing for me since I plan to use my phone for some of the playlists for my wedding.
No update...?
Im having the same issue as well. Songs will randomly pause. Youtube does too. Any suggestions? I have tried 3 finger swipe to 'save the app' and reducing active programs. Happens with bluetooth and headphones.
Hi
Im very Happy with the Oreo Update for the Essential Phone. The only thing that doesn't work ist the Equalizer with Spotify. Does it work with your phone? I tried it via Bluetooth and the USB-C Adapter both failed.
My Phone is not Rooted and haven't Plan it to do. With the Beta and Android 7 the Equalizer seems Fine.
Thanks for your Help

Thanks for your Feedback i will try to Clear the Cache from MusicFX and hope for the best
Have found the Solution... its from 2013
I figured out what is causing the problem and this is when using the music fx equalizer any song you are playing from a playlist that is stored for offline use and you own that song this will cause the equalizer not to work. Once another song you do not own is played the equalizer works again. The only way to get a song you own to work with the equalizer is to go to the custom settings of the equalizer when the song you own is playing and click ok and the equalizer will work until spotify hits another song you own. This problem caused me to delete some songs I own off the phone and then delete the playlist and download it again so the playlist does not use a song I own and then the equalizer will not turn off.
Thanks Caltinpla:good:
Wow, that's a very particular circumstance and process to fix. Sure seems like a bug in Spotify and/or interface with the equalizer app.

Interesting...
I personally think it's malarkey...
Because... The built in equalizer will only work on songs that you have stored... When streaming... Deep Buffering kicks in... This causes more download from streaming audio sources... And bypasses the equalizer... Hence why you need to remove deep buffering to make streaming audio process...
