I have almost 500 songs, and love not having to think about what song is on what device, but for some reason every other song is from the same few albums when shuffling. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Yep, same here. I have 700+ songs and a lot of songs get repeated. I just bought power amp and its WAY better than any music player out there. Check it out.

Try wiping cache for music. Also make sure you dont have any other google music app on your phone.
I've got over 19,000 songs and have never had a problem with Google Music.
I have almost 20gigs of music and it'll play the same few songs over and over
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
20K songs and I get the same 5 songs playing back to back every few hours plus many of the same songs play several times during my 8 hours at work.
Irritating!
Google Music has been a disappointment from the beginning. The album image resolution looks like crap. They reduce everything to 128k bitrate for streaming, the only way to play is to use playlists or to set up a queue. Trying to stream over wireless is pointless. Pandora, Tune-In and Amazon player are fine, Google Music only works for me on wifi (no wimax here)
I navigate to what I want and hit play. This is apparently the old fashioned method because the big players don't really work that way. They want you to have a (mocking voice)-library and playlists. So I end closing the app in frustration.
Anyway, sorry to go on like that. I'm not a fan.
Effin google still hasn't fixed this issue. I've heard the same sh*t over 20 times now.
The shuffle in the new play music app is even worse. Never actually shuffles.

I have a blueant q2 and when ever i listened to music and skip a song itll skip 4-5 tracks until it plays the next. Weird thing is it feels like it only wants to play tracks from two albums. Ive tried it on three different music players. Stock, Uber music and google music.
Anyone else having this issue or know a fix?

Is anybody experiencing audio distortion with google music and 4.0.4?
It happens a lot (3-4 times during a song) and it sounds the same as a scratched CD (it sorta "hangs" on part of a song for a few seconds).
This is not the same as screen off distortion issue that was reported earlier by a lot of people. This one happens both when I am using the phone and when the screen is off.
Not happening here. Does it only happen when streaming (not stored music)? And is this on WiFi or 3G?

Both wifi and 3g. I doubt it's network related beacause the app shows that the song is fully buffered. Even if I go to the begining of a cached song it still happens.
i experienced similar behavior couples times with screen on playing long track/radio podcast/mix(stored internally) running 4.0.2(google music version was 4.1.512 - before updated logo) while gnex was connect to car aux, but i haven't be able to replicate it again.
Happens sometimes. Doesn't matter whether its local or streaming, but it seems related to the phone locking up or running out of RAM/CPU usage. Something along those lines because whenever it happens (rarely) the entire phone skips or locks up for a second.

You might be right. It does appear to happen more often when doing heavy multitasking.
It's kinda unusable for me right now because it's happening so lot.
Already a thread somewhere for this. But I do have the issue as well. As stated it doesn't matter if its streaming or local. Had it happen on cm9 an aokp. Also without heavy multitasking

Thanks for the confirmation guys. It seems like I'm a lot more affected by this issue than the most of you.
Do you mind sharing your rom/kernel/governer/freq settings? maybe we can find a common ground?

Are your mp3s encoded in the 48khz range? If so it's a bug in the google music player which cause it to 'lag' while it decode the mp3 file, no problems on mp3s in the 44khz range. Dunno about the new ver of google music player haven't try it and don't intend to after i migrate to Poweramp.

Interesting. I just checked and I have about 20 48khz songs. I'm not sure if they are the ones that get distorted. I'll keep an eye on those tracks. Thanks!
This has bugged me for the longest time. *Hopes for a fix*
Just go for Poweramp. It's worth the money and it can play 48khz mp3s silky smooth. Just remember to set the options to 'Highest Thread Priority' and '750ms' buffers. There's a 14 days full features trial version, download it and have a try.
All of my songs are 44khz.
It hasn't happened on 4.0.4 yet.

For those that are having issues when the screen goes off, the following worked for me.
When a song is playing, go to the top of the screen to the "..." and select sound effects. Turn on the Equalizer to whatever you want and it should work much better for you.

we're using google music for its streaming feature, not because we're not capable of using other players

Exactly.
I'll try the sound effects thing as long as it doesn't interfere with DSP manager
Edit: lol it takes me directly to DSPmanager which is already enabled.

Okay, so today I was listening to music, on my totally stock GS III. Suddenly the music switches through to the speaker, instead of going to my headphones. The first time this happen, it was when a song ended and a new song came on Google Music. The second time was when my friend texted me. My phone was on vibrate only. Obviously, this can be quite embarrassing especially when you are in a quiet zone. I checked to make sure the notification bar still had the headphone logo. I'm using regular no mic headphones. This happened earlier, is there anyway I can still logcat? Like doesn't it save all that until reboot? I don't even remember if I rebooted yet...probably..
Anyways, yeah, I tried searching, but I came up with threads on bluetooth and speakers just not working or crackling. So I think I might be the only one..?
Thanks for the help.
Only thing I can think of is maybe your headphone port is losing connectivity with your 3.5mm jack and it thinks no headphones are present?

1. background advertisements. Use adaware
2. poor installation/settings check google music and the app settings. worst comes to worst go to manage apps clear data, uninstall and re-install in market
It happened to me once or twice with google music player. Actually, since JB, google music is full of bug on my side, it randomly hangs on song switching, this bug, low volume bug until I pause and press play. Tried clearing cache/data, uninstalling couple of times, and no go.
I've given up on it and am now using rocket player with cloud music importer. I was never streaming anyway but I liked the google music interface... oh well
I'm on a stock based jellybean ROM rooted

Yes but the usual behavior is that when headphones are pulled out, it pauses the music.

I'm not sure what the advertisements have to do with the audio problem, but I do use ad blocker. I have tried flashing back to stick through kies and odin.

I have the same issue but I use rocket music player. But the worst issue I have is when I'm listening to music and someone calls me, after the call it puts full speaker volume out my headphones and blows my ears out. I would definitely be interested in a solution otherwise I will be going back to ICS myself; especially since I can't run Adobe Flash on web pages anymore.

I'll add to this I've had the same issues with my rooted stock JB from my google play player so I just switched players to power amp full version player and I could not be any happier!
Has happened to me twice in class. Was listening to a song in google music, song ended and the next one came on, except this time coming out of the speaker. Very embarrassing!

Recently read in a different forum that changing LPAplayer from true to false I think in the build.prop is a solution.... Can't remember where I read it, couldn't find it in history, probably was on my other machine...
Been looking into this more. Seems like more people are having this problem. Some suggest downgrading google music, some say the 11/12 update is bad, some say LPAplayer or something needs to be disabled, using default samsung player, which reminds me today I installed Pandora which happened to do the same thing so it must be touchwiz and it only happens on JB. Not trying to change my phone to CM10, thats a no for me. Has anyone found a real solution?

I put songs in mp3 format in my n2 . The strangest thing happened. .. it played the right song for the first 3 or 2 seconds and then changes into another song, but it did not forward or skip the song its still the mp3 im playing. I dont know if I made any sense here.. but when I tried to play it in my laptop it was ok. But when I play it on my n2 its mixed up again... need help.

Ever since I updated my device to KitKat I noticed that the stock music player skips the end of the song and starts a new one without me pressing next. I have factory reset, and wiped the cache partition as suggested by a Samsung tech support (even though I think that they don't know what they are doing, but I give them credit for trying ?). I have tried different players and the songs do play all the way on those but not the stock player. I would prefer to fix the stock player because I'm used to it and really don't like the other players, but if i don't have any options then I guess I'm out of luck. Btw, I'm running stock 4.4.2 TW not rooted. Any help you be appreciated, thanks.

I am having the exact same problem. It's only for a specific few of songs and I can predict it when I hear a song that I know does it. This has been happening to me since before the kitkat update. Anyone one else having this problem or know a fix?

Well I forgot to add this in my post. If I seek through the song and get close to where it skips it does not skip the ending.
I also tried using a different music player, the play music app, and it too skipped as well.
Are you dowbloading from an app or buying the song?

I'm downloading them off my computer and putting them on through the "Easy Phone Sync" application. It allows you to copy songs from your iTunes to your phone. I've tested to see if its just the actual file and the song does not skip on iTunes.
Try to copy them straight from your PC to your phone

Try what serio said. I could be wrong but im almost positive the file is being corrupted in the transfer to your phone

Temporary solution
I m using Nexus 5, Android 5.0.1 and I discovered something yesterday relating to this issue.
Play Music skips last few seconds of song and that always annoys me. But I found a temporary way to correct it.
While you are playing a song on Play Music, click Multi-Screen Soft button (next to Home soft button) and remove Play Music from stack of apps. In my phone, even though the app is removed from stack of apps, it still appears on notification ( top right corner of the screen) Now, pull down the home screen to go to notification and play the music from there. This solves the skipping of music.
I havent tested in other phones, but it works well on mine.
I have this problem too on my one touch evolve 2 running 4.4.2
Stock music player skipping...
My problem is a bit different from the ones above. I'm on a Galaxy 5 Kit Kat. The stock music player will skip the FIRST few seconds of tracks. Not all, but about 50% of them. Does not do it on the Google Player. Synced from WMP. Always worked with my Galaxy 3.
