Got my new galaxy s5 a month ago. I use it to play music on my car audio system via bluetooth. Now when I am changing music through the phone or via the system the phone starts to freeze up, won't respond. Sometimes I can see the bar on the music carry on playing. So I can skip about 3/4 songs until it freezes up and then I can play some music after about 5 minutes of not touching it. I have cleared BT Cache, Dalvik Cache. When I first got the phone I moved over to ART but S health didn't work, so I switched back to Dalvik. Is it possible this could be the cause?

I've been having problems with listening to music over my bluetooth headset. Sometimes the music stops and when I press play again, it starts the song over. It's usually just a minor annoyance, but every so often it does it several times in a row within a few minutes, which is usually followed by my phone rebooting itself.
This has happened on both Fission 2.4.3 and the leaked Verizon Gingerbread prerelease, both of which I did a clean install on (factory wipe, cache reset, the whole deal). Anyone have anything similar? Or just me?
Headset is a Motorola Rokr, if that helps.
Scenario:
Playing music with Spotify app, close app, music does not stop. In fact you have to force close the app in order to stop the music. When notifications come, music does not change focus temporarily. When phone call comes in, focus does to change to call. This is only with spotify.
I have uninstalled, cleared cache, reinstalled, tried on other edge plus(Es) all to the same. Anyone else have this problem? Or better, a fix?
Okay I've been testing other apps, its all apps capable of playing in the background. I guess it is an OS level bug, I'll try a full reset and share whether it fixes it
Funny, my Spotify is stopping. While working out, it takes about 5 to 10 minutes and it closes. I already configured it as an exception from batt optimization (turned off for spotify) but the behavior is still the same...
Try another version of spotify.
Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 / SCH-I545 model running android 5.0.1, VRUGOF1 firmware version, and when I am listening to music sometimes the audio will stop playing, but the music keeps going.
Things I've noticed:
-This happens both with headphones in AND without them.
-It can be temporarily fixed by Unplugging my headphones and plugging them back in ( or plugging in headphones and then unplugging them)
-It happens on different types of music file formats(M4A and MP3)
-There is no consistency in between the times that it happens
-It happens at every volume
-It happens on 3rd party music apps and on the default Samsung music player
-It doesn't happen while streaming videos
I have done a power reboot, I have cleared task cache, I have cleared system cache, I have factory reset my phone (3 times), I have tried doing this with and without updating anything. I have only found one other occurrence of this problem on the internet but the original poster never got an answer so I have decided to directly ask for help.
I recently flashed QB2 on my G-900V and since then I've noticed that when I watch videos on YouTube or use Google Play Music, headphones or not, the volume will drop and go back to where it's set. This is repeated for about 10-15 minutes and when I'm listening to Play Music I'll get the error that the selected song cannot be played. With YouTube it seems as though the device is having a hard time keeping a constant connection and sometimes either or both applications have quit working. I also use TuneIn and tried listening to it and it will constantly pause and unpause. I'll gladly take any/all suggestions as this is extremely annoying.
I'm not sure if this is a Spotify issue, essential phone issue or specific to the latest update a few days ago.
I got my PH-1 about 2 weeks ago but today is the 1st time I'm playing Spotify so I'm just now noticing the issue.
Observation
When I start a Playlist it plays 2 sometimes 3 songs then stops. Skipping or tapping pause then play from the lockscreen does not help. I have to unlock the phone and open Spotify for playback to start again. Seems to always happen at the end of a song.
I 1st noticed it while playing through my Bluetooth speaker but tried wired headphones, and the loud speakers and it always spot at the end of song 2 or 3. (Different Playlists).
What I've done
1- uninstalled and reinstalled Spotify
2- turn off battery optimization for Spotify
None seems to make any difference. Has anyone noticed this, and figured out how to get it done play normally?
Sometimes it simply stops playing music, pressing play, pause, next ro back doesnt work. I have to close the app but it works fine after opening it again.
I had issues with Spotify when I used an ad blocking VPN. Went away when I disabled it.
