So I've stumbled across a 'feature' in CM9 that I do not care for at all and hope that someone can help me out.
I use an app called 'Setting Profiles' to silence my phone during busy events on my Google Calendar. I've found that if I'm listening to music with headphones on my phone the app silences my phone like it's supposed to, but if I then unplug the headphones, the ringer volume returns to it's previous value. Plug the headphones back in and the phone silences itself again.
It appears as if CM9 has a volume profile for headphones plugged in and a separate profile for headphones unplugged. Is there a setting where I can disable this? Anything I can to to avoid inadvertently unsilencing my phone by unplugging my headphones?
I'm running CM9 nightly from 8-06-12.

is there a tweak or fix to route the ringtone song to play through the headphones when they are connected?
for me when the sound is on and headphones are plugged in, the ringtone will still play through the speaker. only way to turn that off is to drop the phone volume to 0, in which case you have to rely on the vibrate function to inform you of a phone call..
seems logical that if your music is playing through the headphones your ringtone should be able to as well ?
I've been running the CM9 nightlies on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus for a while and have been loving it, but I've noticed that when I plug in headphones or unplug headphones my ringer profile will change occasionally. I set my ringer using profiles with Locale, so I really don't like my phone suddenly changing from vibrate to full volume ringer while at work. Is this a bug or a feature of CM9? If it is a feature, is there a way I can turn it off? Has anyone else run into this? Any guidance would be appreciated.

CM9 seams to have separate volume settings for headset in / out. Any changes you make to any volume settings while the headset is plugged in will revert to what the settings were before plug in when the headset is unplugged.
There is also a setting for safe headset volume that reduces the volumes to a safe level when your headset is plugged in.

Right, but it is changing the phone ringer volume when I (un)plug my headphones. I don't know why if the last time I had my headphones plugged in my phone was on vibrate, the next time I plugged my headphones in I'd necessarily want it to be on vibrate again. I suppose you've answered my question, I just don't particularly like the implementation of the feature... :-/

Personally I think the feature sucks, I've just learned to live with it. It wouldn't be so bad if you could disable it with a setting.

I'm getting this in CM9.1 (on SGS2, but this is the only thread I can find on it).
Is there any way to disable this? It's making my location aware profiles pointless!
i keep my phone on vibrate all day at work. i also listen to music. i use klipsch S4a II's with the android specific in-line button. if i just use my headphones to listen to music, everything is fine. but as soon as i press the inline button to pause or double click to skip a track, my phones sound profile changes itself from vibrate to ringer. needless to say, if im not paying attention and i unplug my headphones and get up from my desk, my phone is no longer on vibrate and has rung at inappropriate times in a meeting. my note2 used to do this but fixed itself at some point. not sure if it was a software update that fixed it or a setting somewhere. ive looked all over and i dont see anything on the note3 to adjust to change this behavior. anyone else with this problem?
i guess im the only one with this problem then?
Is anybody having this problem? When I am playing music over bluetooth to my car stereo or to bluetooth headphones, I can't hear any of my notification sounds.
The music gets quieter for a second or two and if I really pay attention I can just barely make out the sound of the notification. But really the only way I know that I had a notification is that the music volume turns down for a bit.
With Lollipop, everything worked as expected. The volume of the music would turn down and the notification would play loudly. I'm not sure why this change happened.
Any ideas?
I'm having the same issue. I've found that if I turn up the volume DURING the notification the phone suddenly realizes the volume is too low and cranks it up for that one instance.
Haven't seen this specific issue answered yet - if its a duplicate somewhere a point to the right thread would be appreciated.
For whatever reason over the last couple months, the volume on my pixel 2xl will jump way up (or way down) when on bluetooth either after a call or after using google assistant. It doesn't seem to happen everytime, but just now I was listening to music on my bluetooth headphones at my desk and got a call. I took the call on the headphones by answering the phone and then as soon as I hung up, the volume on the phone shot up to 100% which was not enjoyable.
This also happens when connected to my truck (Ford SYNC) or my running earbuds, and it can also crank the media volume way down (happens frequently in the truck) after a call, at which point I have to manually adjust the volume again. The same activity also happens if I activate google assistant and issue a voice command, but in both cases it is not 100% consistent. It appears like the system is trying to dynamically change the volume for some perceived situation, but it sucks at it.
I also use A2DP app for volume control settings and app launching for all my connections, but I have used that since I got this phone 2 years ago and none of the settings have changed.
Anyone had similar behavior and found a fix? It is really annoying when my music goes so low that I can't even hear it in the truck after a call, and equally annoying when I have headphones on and it cranks the volume up and tries to blow out my eardrums.
