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'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.
I had this problem with my S2 and I thought it was either the hardware failing or a problem with the custom ROM, but my new S4 with stock software has the exact same problem and it's driving me mad..
If I'm listening to stored music, the playback will pause randomly. The phone can be sitting untouched on a desk or in my pocket, and it will just pause, sometimes once in several hours, other times every few minutes. It doesn't coincide with any other events on the phone such as messages arriving or it switching networks. The music starts again as soon as I unpause it. It doesn't do this with streaming music, only music that's stored in the phone or on an SD card. It does it when I'm using either headphones or the speaker. Any ideas how to fix this, as it renders the phone useless as a music player.
Try to turn off automatic rotation.
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?
Hi. Im having this problem when Im listening to music with headset connected to the phone and randomly (I don't how to reproduce the bug) it will produce a short beep (1 second) and continue playing with no problems but in the worst case it will produce a long long beep (10-15 seconds) and then all system audio gets muted even though it shows as if it was playing. To fix it I have to restart the phone. This happened with Spotify. I tried doing a factory reset and install Spotify 5.8 only (so that I know that no other app is causing this) and it keeps happening. I also tried many headphones and earphones but they are not the problem, also happened with the phone connected to my car via aux cable. Do you think it is a hardware related problem with my 3.5mm jack or software related?
Even though those short beeps don't mute system audio they make YouTube desync video/audio for some reason so I have to restart the phone to get it working normally.
My device model is XT1644 4GB ram 64GB storage with build no. MPJ24.139-64 and stock Android 6.0.1.
I will try Google Play Music and see if the same happens... though I don't think that Spotify is the problem since I saw noone with this problem on the Spotify forum and I tried many versions of it.
Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

It has happened with Netflix, YouTube and also Google Play Music. Strange thing is that I left it all night playing (about 8 hours) and when I woke up I checked it and it was all good; then I started YouTube app to see if sync was OK and it was until 3 minutes approx. of watching a video when a short beep occured. After that I tried Netflix and a long beep occured (needed to restart phone). If it is a hardware problem then why it gets fixed with a restart? I find that hard to understand and even though it seems random I think it is being triggered by something on the Android system maybe... Why did the beep occur right after some minutes of using it when I woke up and not before while it was playing all night? Any other ideas to troubleshoot this?
Thank you!

This problem is out of subject.Would be better if you post this in the motorola forums.Just make sure you dont mention you have rooted or modded your phone otherwise they will blame rooting as culprit.
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.
