- Steps to reproduce the problem.
Plug headset or earphone with mic to the 3.5mm jack and don't play google play music yet.
- What happened.
The audio output of google talk notification sound when receiving message goes to both loudspeaker and headset or earphone with mic simultaneously.
- What you think the correct behavior should be.
The audio output of app's notification sound should only go to headset or earphone if it's plugged in.
This audio output bug can be reproduced on Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM (maguro) running stock Android Jelly Bean 4.2.1. The strange thing is, if music player is playing, the audio output is correct, notification sounds go to headset only. I do hope this will be fix on next update 4.2.2 or 5.x. Perhaps there should be a headset option on settings > sounds so that we can choose whether to mute loudspeaker when headset is plugged in just like as in some custom ROMs.
Does anyone here experience the same and care to vote the bug I just reported to AOSP here?
Thanks in advance.
I think this behaviour is very useful and logic. If, for example, you plug in your earphones and forget to remove them from the phone after listening to music, you need to hear the notifications in the loudspeaker. If music is playing, it is considered that the headphones are in your ears, so you don't need the notification sound in the loudspeaker also. It's very useful in my opinion

When I plug my headphones into my Evo the notification sounds still play through the external speaker. The only way to stop them from playing through the external speaker is to put it on vibrate or silent. But then that stops the notifications from playing through the headset too.
Does anyone have a fix or a workaround? Is this just an HTC Sense issue or is this a problem with android? I've looked into using tasker to disable the external speaker when a headset is hooked up but I haven't been able to figure out a way to make that work. Tasker seems to rely on the profiles and none of them support this.
There's a ticket open here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6696. But for some crazy reason this is considered an enhancement. I think this is a pretty serious bug. I mean, who would want ANY sounds coming from the external speaker while a headset is attached?
I feel your pain. Whenever I'm listening to music w/ my headphones, my roommate is able to hear my SMS notifications through my speaker =(
so, uh, bump....anyone have any luck finding a solution to this? doesn't seem to have been fixed with 3.29...
Also interested in this. I was in the library listening to pandora on my headset and I got a call...and the ring played through the speakers! Ahhhh...we need a solution to this!
Swyped from an HTC Evo on MetroPCS...
recently i have been experiencing an audio issue that only seems to be fix itself after a reboot. hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction for further troubleshooting/debugging/resolution.
on occasion i use the headphone jack to listen to pandora. if a call comes in during this time the pandora audio stops (as it should) however, i cannot hear the caller via the earpiece or headphone jack. the only way i can hear them is if i unplug the headphones and turn on the speakerphone. once the call is ended the audio sometimes will resume from the headphone jack, sometimes it will not. the behavior is the same even if manually exit pandora and unplug the headphones. it is also the same if an incoming call does not interrupt the pandora session.
similarly, if i am listening to pandora on the rear speaker and i plug headphones in, i get no audio in the headphones. if i unplug the headphones the audio does not return to the rear speaker.
visually, the headphone icon in the notification bar comes and goes as you would expect at all times. i am running a sprint lovers 2.2 rom. this problem only recently started, and i don't believe i had done anything to cause it like installing new apps or anything of the sort.
can anyone help me out?
Not sure where or what to search for on this issue but it's been killing me with my Nexus for the past few months.
Coming from a couple of HTC phones one thing I really liked about them, which might have been Sense feature, was the phone having two completely separate audio volumes one for when headphones were plugged in and another for when the phone was hooked up via Bluetooth.
My problem is I listen to music very low with headphones at work, then unplug them before getting into my truck, automatically hooking up to the Bluetooth to stream and the volume stays at the low headphone volume. To hear it over truck stereo I need to turn the phone BT volume all the way up. Fast forward to when I sit back down at work to listen to music, my headphone volume is back to the last BT volume or maxed out. Just a real annoyance and find it hard to believe this is the way Google designed it and has nothing in place when I'm having an off day and don't manually fix it before I listen to my headphones again and blast my eardrums like I did yesterday.
Is this how the Nexus should handle BT and Headphone volumes? Is there any kind of fix for this?
Thanks in advance
I like to run using Endomondo Pro and also listen to music. It seems that sound from only one source goes through the headphone and the rest go through the phone speaker. Is this normal? Is there any way to change it? Currently I can either listen to the coaching/interval information through the headphones or listen to music. As soon as the second source starts, the first goes through the phone speaker instead of the headphones. Notifications also seem to always go through the phone speaker not the headphones.
Hello friends,
i just noticed when i have my headphone plugged in the notification and ringer sound plays over speaker AND headphone. The jack is fully pushed in. I would like to know if there's a possibility to turn this off, so only my headphones play the sound? I'm using CM11 Rom. I've read some custom roms have an option for this feature, but mine does not or i haven't found it yet.
Best regards
