Hi,
Recently came across this strange behavior on my nexus 6p device, not sure if it’s a bug or if I am missing something. This is what happens:
I am listening to media, for example a podcast from Pocket casts with wired headphones. As soon as I lock the screen and put the device in my pocket the sound stops, I go in to the application that is playing the sound and see that it is still playing even though I don’t hear any sound. I use the volume rocker to have a look at the sound settings and don’t see any reason as to why it has stopped producing sound. The same goes for Spotify so it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the applications. In order to get the sound back I need to pause the podcast\song and press play again
I can almost simulate this whenever I want by putting it in my pocket, it gets muted right when the lining of my pants covers the bottom speaker (on the usb side).
Found a solution, *I went into the "Ok Google" detection settings and disabled "Always on" and "Trusted voice" and then deleted my recorded recognition, it seems to have fixed the problem.
If I turn them back on, the problem appears again

As others have pointed out, the Epic has an annoying "feature" of making a sound whenever it re-establishes a cell radio connection and there's no real way to disable it in the stock ROM.
This doesn't really bother me per se since I can live with muting the alerts volume, but that doesn't prevent the notification event from cutting into whatever music I'm listening to on wired headphones--the volume will drop to make way for an audio alert regardless of the volume level or vibrate mode, then come back up. It happens on just about every audio app I've tried.
Well thankfully, I just got a pair of Bluetooth headphones and for whatever reason the issue doesn't crop up, at least not so far. I thought others might find this helpful, particularly subway commuters.
This one has been bugging me for a while and for the most part I've just worked around it (by manually triggering the bug/fix myself first).
The situation is that X1 starts off at a particular volume level, and I start listening to music via PocketPlayer though from what I can tell it happens regardless. It sounds "ok", but noticeably flat? I dunno like a mono audio file even volume turned up, although I can't confirm that. Just describing.
OK the bug - if some kind of event happens, the volume suddenly jumps up, without actually changing the setting. So I'll be listening to music and if one of the following occurs:
1. receive or send an SMS/MMS
2. I toggle the phone function, i.e. turn off phone radio. when I turn it back on the volume doesn't change
the volume jumps up, and I have to say the music sounds much better. On the flip side, when the phone happens to ring, it's loud as hell, distorts like hell and annoys everyone in the process. The ringtone volume just sounds over-the-top.
Now I'm pretty sure it's not the music player because #2 (toggling the phone) seems to affect the volume already. The message box alert sound on toggling the phone seems louder the second time.
Anyone have or notice this issue?
The only volume threads I find are all about a low constant volume and don't sound like this one. FWIW I did try the reg changes anyway. It still varies.
when any kind of audio is being played back, if I unlock or wake the screen the audio is interrupted/paused. This occurs when playing back audio through the phone's speaker, bluetooth, or headsets.
I have also noticed that it sometimes makes the same sound as when I start Google Now/Voice search, but not always. I have some programs like Media Button Router that are being impacted because their text to speech outputs are being silenced whenever they wake up the phone.
I have gone through and disabled app after app using titanium backup, but haven't found the culprit yet.
Screen lock sounds are disabled as well.
Even things like audio control of the alarm no longer work properly because the audio is being interrupted when the screen is woken up.
any ideas?
bump: any ideas? this is a really annoying issue.
Hey guys
I just registered because I experienced some problems with my recently bought nexus 6p. I really like this phone but as soon as I start listening to music using headphones the bugs are invading my phone since I didn't find anything on Google I start this thread.
But let's get to my problem:
I plug in my headphones and start playing music (using blackplayer and Google music). When the screen is turned on the volume turns down itself (I can see the volume bar going down to zero like I'm pressing the button). Also sometimes the powerbutton stops working and I have to restart my phone long pressing the power button.
But also when the screen is turned out I experience some problems. One of the most annoying ones is that music stops and starts randomly (but only when headphones are plugged in!!!). The other bug is music stopping, display turns on and some female voice tells me "Bitte warten! (please wait)" and the screen is gray saying "initializing".
Has someone experienced similar problems? What could help? If you guys need any more information just tell me
I have none of these problems. Have you tried a different set of headphones?
Change your headphones or ensure that they're set up properly. I'm guessing they're wired.
I'm also running into this same issue. I have the latest updates on my phone. This happens about 25 minutes in to listening to media. I've heard that disabling "OK Google detection" fixes it. This hasn't worked for me.
Sounds like wired headphones with a faulty connection to the phones, or faulty buttons on the headphones. I have seen similar behavior with just a wired connection to an AUX Input. The connection on the wire was faulty and due to changing resistance, it looked to the phone like headphone buttons were being pressed. Could also be a fault at the headphone jack on the phone, but it was not in my case. Definitely try other headphones to help narrow down the issue.

Hello, I noticed a issue when using my Nothing Phone.
When using my phone's speakers to play music or a media, and opening apps like banking, the bottom speaker of my phone turns off and music plays through the top speaker in a low quality (similar to how voice calls audio are managed). I have to manually pause and resume the music/media after leaving the app to make the bottom speaker work again.
Anyone has noticed a similar issue?
What could be a way to fix it?
The 2 things that could cause this in my mileage would be the biometric prompt or the flag-secure element of the app, but I don't see why it would affect audio.
