I'm running Mammon's 1.0.4 DK28. This isn't really important as it's happened w/ every DK28 ROM I've used and it's the most extremely frustrating thing for me.
It goes like this...
I have my phone synced to a jabra earpiece and to the radio in my truck (Clarion CZ500)
I don't use my jabra much but when I do, I get the same weird behavior as in my truck.
In my truck, I get bluetooth connected. I can hear sounds etc. from my speakers. I can stream Pandora, etc. and it works fine. I can make a phone call and it will connect, but no sound unless i switch to speaker, then back to bluetooth.. After I hang up, I can't get bluetooth to produce sound at all. I disable bluetooth and try to listen to music etc. from the external speaker and only get sound from the phone's earpiece. If I make a call, and put it on speaker, still no sound from external speaker, only from the phone's earpiece. Then, after completing a phone call, the phone is sitting idle and makes a popping sound from the earpiece.. random time intervals but still happens until I power cycle the phone.
Any ideas as to how or why this is happening ?? It's extremely frustrating.
Thanks
I have a new car and a new phone so it's hard to be sure.
I used the GNex for about 3 days with the new car and didn't see problems. Connected every time and sound was consistent
With the MotoX I am getting auto connected about 1/2 the time and a lot of stuttering on the bluetooth audio.
Same for others ?
Another question: When I connect bluetooth the volume always resets to about 80%. Can I change this setting anywhere ?
So it's not the car as I just had the same problems with my BT headphones. It also started playing through the speakers at one point even though the BT connection was still showing.
I use the Bluetooth calling feature with my truck. I haven't had any problems so far, but it's only been a few days. I will report back if I do have problems. I am running 4.4 with all OTAs.
My moto x after kitkat update bluetooth disconnects in middle and reconnects again in 5 seconds. Super annoying

My HTC One did that with aosp kitkat. I haven't seen that on the X yet.

I've had pretty much the same experience with mine since the 4.4 update. I don't even bother listening to music over bluetooth now because it's so annoying with the constant stuttering. I'm hoping they fix it with the next update, whenever that comes. If not, I'll probably have to look into upgrading to a newer head unit. My GNex always worked great with this stereo's bluetooth.
I listened to Spotify Inmine yesterday, no problems. It even sent the song information to my car's display which it didn't do on my last phone.
I've been tethering my Nexus 7 using Bluetooth and had a lot of trouble getting it to connect the first time. But today was my first real use of it and the Internet connection on the Nexus 7 dropped part way through the trip. It was only being used to get traffic info for CoPilot, so I didn't notice right away when the connection was lost. A little troubleshooting got me nowhere, but then while driving the connection came back on its own.
Something happens with me

No issues with bluetooth here. Pandora is streaming fine and Torque is talking to my OBD2 adapter as well (even both at the same time).

I use bluetooth daily and haven't experienced a disconnect or even a stutter with Google Play Music on 4.4. I chose the setting to resume music when driving is detected and now I don't even take out my phone when I get in my car. Music usually starts playing within 100' of driving. There is a mod to remove the audio warning; I haven't tried it yet, but I don't really have a problem with it either.

Samsung has the same thing on it's firmware, and while it was a PITA to find and fix, it can be done (fairly easily).
I've had some Bluetooth issues that I described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2562186
At least one other person mentioned their connection dropping repeatedly. My issue started with it only connecting to my hands free in my car, but but my separate A2DP audio receiver. If I tapped on the device in Bluetooth settings, it connected fine. I found an app called Bluetooth Auto Connect that has nice configuration options to do what I needed (connect to A2DP once General Motors connects), but it also plays nice with Tasker.
I did notice last night that my General Motors connection was starting and stopping repeatedly my entire drive home from work (~45 minutes). I noticed it at first when I would turn the screen on to thumb up a song on Pandora, and the "you're connected to a trusted device" message would flash. At first I thought it was just reminding me of that each time the screen came on (or manually unlocking when the screen turned on), but then noticed my radio was saying "Bluetooth Connected" every few minutes as well. I rarely actually talk on the phone, so it's not a huge deal, but as described in my post linked above, on Monday I got a call when I (thought I) was connected to my General Motors, but it wasn't. I answered the call and was talking on the handset when it connected to Bluetooth and then I was hands free.
I did also notice yesterday when I was listening to Pandora with wired headphones at my desk at work that it got started sputtering pretty bad after I got a text message and Active Display was "breathing". Not sure if the two are related, but it happened. I did get a few texts while driving home and didn't notice any skipping over Bluetooth then.
Interesting theory on the active display... I've often wondered if that was partially responsible for the stuttering issue I'm having, but I was under the impression that it is automatically disabled when the phone is in your pocket, or face down. I guess I have some more experimenting to do while I wait for the next update.
At least for me it would not be face down in the car so I'll keep an eye on that.
Can someone point me to where I can take care of the volume issue ?
OK figured it out and learned about Xpose. Very cool.
I'll see if this is what was actually my problem. My problem was that bluetooth audio level is always reset to 80% (or so) each time I use it.
Bluetooth in my car is awesome.
ATT kitkat with Toyota Venza
Before the update music streaming took 20 seconds to load, but now it works instantly.
Bluetooth has had half second "pauses" at random times... sometimes seems too coincide with the screen on or off, other times when the phone is doing nothing. Also before kit Kat Google music would show track number (but nothing else) now I've lost that too. Unrooted

I experienced the pauses today when I overrode the volume warning. They kept occurring even after the volume was turned back down below 80%. I rebooted and started up some music without going over the volume suggestion and the skips were gone. If you're having trouble with the music or Bluetooth connection "skipping" try it out. Definitely tied to that volume warning somehow.
Interesting theory, I'll have to test it out. I have noticed that mine seems to do it at the same locations while I'm driving, and am starting to wonder if it is related to the handoff between towers.

I am running stock (with root) 4.2.2 sw on my 32GB D802, first irritating thing is every time i turn on my headphones the Sennheiser MM 450-x to connect to phone I always must press a confirmation dialog on my phone to establish a connection.
Second is that 8 of 10 times I pair/connect I get really crap sound, with cracking, and noise, this is not something i hear without actually playing some music and only way to solve this is to turn on and off both BT and headphones, pair and reconnect many times until I get a clean connection.
And third it is that the phone does not allow me to use the headphones as handsfree.
All of these things worked without a problem on my old SGS 3.
Anyone know a solution, or if maybe KK will solve it?
So I'm miffed! My brand new baby is giving me a Bluetooth nightmare. After I use it with Plantronics BackBeat Go 2 headset and disconnect the Bluetooth (even if I switch off Bluetooth), phone audio won't come thru the regular speaker. However, if I switch on the speakerphone, then audio works.
A restart fixes the problem. But it is super annoying. Anyone else experience the issue? Do you guys have an idea of how to fix this?
Until this, I've been super happy with my white 128GB baby!
You aren't crazy, I've had some similar problems. if you notice, when this issue is active and you try to turn your volume up, it'll show BT volume being changed instead of regular. For me, I can usually toggle BT on and off again to get it back to normal.

This also works for me. Still annoying though.
I don't know the tech verbiage perhaps a developer is best equipped however:
1. Connecting Bluetooth seems to cause the system to act stupid. I had found a video through MyVidSter which took me to Pornhub while on the toilet I figured I'd let it download as I proceeded to brush my teeth and take a shower (fresh, beautiful, and clean)
2. Next I connect my Bluetooth headsets and go to playback my video and it stalls gives error can't play.
3. Turn off device restart
4. WHAM, it finally can play the same video it couldn't just a moment ago.
5.I then disconnected and noticed my sound wasn't there when I went to YouTube to listen to a Formation.
6. I tried PowerAmp and the strangest thing the file played the song at like 256x very sped up! I could see the scrub bar moving along very fast!! No sound or video would play on YouTube or my photo gallery
7. I finally go to setting power on Bluetooth toggle for a few seconds then turned it off and finally videos sound and music without would play again.

Having the same issue with LG HBS-810 Headset. If I turn off the headphones before I turn off Bluetooth on my phone, it's OK. If I turn off Bluetooth on my phone first, then no sound. Also, If I turn on the headphones first, then Bluetooth on my phone, they will not connect until I turn off and back on my headphones.
I seem to have the same issue on my Nexus 7 (2013) with Android 6.0.1, so I think it's a 6.0.1 bug.
Wierd issue. Use to work but not now. When I'm on Bluetooth and take or make a phone call on Bluetooth... And then after the call try and play media through Bluetooth, it won't have sound. Max volume. Shows as playing. But nothing. Not even through phone speaker. It's as if the dialer app didn't release the Bluetooth control after the call.
Only way to fix is to turn off Bluetooth and back on.
Anyway to fix?
I had this happen once or twice, but not recently. I use bluetooth in my car but my factory radio in my car only has BT for calls, not music. I have a small A2DP device that plays music through the AUX in on the radio. A few times if I took a call via BT for the car, when the call ended the music wouldn't resume. I'd go to Spotify and it showed as playing but no sound came out. I never tried resetting bluetooth because when I'm driving it's easier to just hold power until the phone reboots, then it works fine.
mine does it when I'm using the amazon music player, doesn't matter if I'm on a call or not. Every now and then it just stops sending audio to the radio. If I turn the phone on, the lockscreen shows that the song is playing, but zero audio.
If I pause / play / pause on the lockscreen it usually resumes playing. Very odd issue. Still better than the problems I was having with my note4.
I've seen this issue on android for years. I'll have the same issue if I say Okay Google and Google doesn't recognize what I say.
