CM11 to PA 4.6 HTC M8 - Paranoid Android Q&A

So I've switched over from CM11 to PA. All is great but the one thing that's been a problem is that when I'm playing music through any app, irregularly, the song would stop at a random point and I would have to skip the song altogether to get anything to play again. This happens to all music apps that aren't stream based. Anyone know of a solution for this? Or is it a known bug or something of the sort? Thanks

Yup I am having the same issue.

HELP with RANDOM AUDIO PLAYING....

Im using SPRINT LOVERS ROM (latest build) and I notice that when MEDIAPLAYBACKSERVICE is running, the sense audio player will start to play on its own. For instance, I will go into visual voicemail and play a mail.. I will hear hear the mail BUT then the sense audio player starts up. If I go into services and stop MEDIAPLAYBACKSERVICE, everything seems OK until that service starts again.
What is causing this and how do I resolve? Thanks ...
Never have seen/heard of this before, and I also run the sprint lovers ROM.

This is the latest ROM just posted in the last few days.. it also had the PROXY streaming BREAK issue which I resolved.. BUT now this random audio issue is driving me crazy ... MEDIAPLAYBACKSERVICE is the issue and when that is running the sense widget audio player starts at random. I can be listening to a voicemail in the voicemail app and press STOP in the voicemail app and the player will start and show a notification that it is playing...
any ideas?? I think if you can disable the MEDIAPLAYBACKSERVICE this wont be an issue UNLESS there is a fix...
Did you try re-flashing the rom?

yes 2 times... same issue.. I just tried clearing data from the HTC music player app so we will see...
You can try that, or find the apk, and re-install it. Or install another music player.
WHat do you recommend as a good audio player that doesnt use a lot of resources??
Check your inbox.
Still have this issue. I go listen to visual voivemail. I stop the voicemail and htc player starts playing the ringers on my sd card. I start the voicemail playing and it stops. Any ideas? the htc auto player needed to play ringtones? How would I go about assigning a different player?

[Q] Jelly Bean Stock Music Player Bug

Hi guys. I'm using a stock unrooted One X. It has been running jelly bean since december but a bug came up since a few weeks ago. When I play a song on the stock music player, it would play for less than 10 seconds then it would fast forward or skip to the next song and the bug would happen all over again. This has gotten to the point where its impossible for me to listen to music without feeling very annoyed. This problem doesn't seem to occur when I play the music through the speaker so I'm guessing Beats Audio is causing this. Just a guess though. Anyway I've tried a bunch of things to solve the problem but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried to clear data of music app ?
Yes I did. I also installed Poweramp and the problem happens there too.
The weird thing about this bug is that it doesn't happen every time. I was listening to music for about 2 hours today and everything was fine. But I'm sure it will happen again.

Well, the only thing that's getting in my mind is to make factory reset.
did you try listening to music with beats audio turned off? that may help narrow down the problem...

CM 10.2 bluetooth issues

I've been having problems with bluetooth playback with CM 10.2 and was wondering if I can do anything to resolve/improve it. Basically what happens is when I'm playing music (doesn't matter what player) the song will "pause" for a second and continue playing. This will happen once ever 10-30 seconds during playback and makes it unbearable at times. I saw a few other complaints with other devices and CM 10.1/10.2 and a some mentioned it might be an issue with the bluetooth stack in Android 4.2/4.3. Bluetooth seems to work fine on Stock Sense ROM without issues so something in the Stock ROM's bluetooth is right and something with Stock Android's is wrong (I assume).
Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be (if I'm wrong in my assumption above) and if there is anything that can be done to help resolve it?
Just an update on some things that I've noticed in the past day or two. I was trying to record the problem with the Soundcloud app while playing a song with Play Music. When I had the Soundcloud app recording the skipping only happened four or five times during the songs but as soon as I stop recording and left the Soundcloud app the song would go back to it's normal 15-25 skips. I'm not sure if this is at all relavant but it was something I noticed. If anyone wants a recording just let me know and I'll post a link. Thanks again.
Just in case anyone comes across this thread in the future it seems like the RC1 build of CM fixed my Bluetooth issues. It happens maybe once every few songs which is a huge improvement over previous versions.

I updated to a 4.4 ROM and haven't had a single issue with that. It even sends the timing data to say how much of the song has played vs how much is left. what I heard was up until 4.4, AOSP relied on the manufacturers to write their own Bluetooth code so when using a Sense ROM the bluetooth worked fine. I think there has always been something inherently wrong with the CM bluetooth code for some devices which causes the instability. If you can I'd try a 4.4 ROM to see if that fixes it.

Buzzer while watching a video or listening to music

Hey guys,
So i'm a long time rooter, and such so i've done some of my m own trouble shooting for this issue on my own, to no avail.
My issue is while, i'm either watching a video, or listening to music, if i'm doing anything with the tablet at all, such as checking Facebook, Emails playing a game, and what not, Quite frequently, I will hear a loud buzzer type sound, and the song / video will freeze for the duration of the buzzer.
I'm currently on ASOB 1.3.1, and I started noticing this from 1.2.9 when i first installed the ROM.
So far what i've done for trouble shooting... I've done a full power cycle of my device, I've wiped data, cache, dalvik, and system when i've upgraded version of the ROM.
The only thing that i can think of that would be affecting this would be the DSP Manager. Though this issue has never happened to me in the past with previous roms that had dsp manager, and i utilized the same or very similar settings in dsp manager across the board.
Any ideas as to what could be causing this?
Thanks!
I've been having the same problem on cm11 snapshot. It used to freeze but now the video glitches for a second along with a buzz. I also had this problem on Omni rom as well. Happens on any video playback on YouTube or any media player.
^Ditch the snapshot the fix has been around since the 2/12 nightly. Update.
Glitch kernel also fixes the problem.

[Q] anyone else having this music player problem?

I have Android Revolution HD ROM
and for some reason sometimes it will play music and other times it wont.
Pandora works 100% of the time.
But the music player will play music maybe 20% of the time.
I have to keep clicking forward or rewind continuously for it to play the song I want (which only works if it's the only song in the queue, or else hitting forward and back multiple times skips it to other songs)
Anyone else having this problem?
It's really irritating and I have everything else that works besides that.
Thanks!
Not exactly the same problem you're having but, on google play music, often if I play a song and press the back button the song will stop and start all over again. I'm using insert coin but had it on arhd too. Might be a bug in the app.

You are correct, after some investigation, I have found out that HTC Music app is kinda bugged with custom ROMs I believe.
Or just mine.
Google Music works fine.
But I really like the HTC Music because it downloads album art and lyrics!!!
how awesome!
I really wanted it
okay after more update, it works sometime with Google Play?
Wow this thing is really buggy...
Anyone have a custom ROM without these music problems??
Why not download PlayerPro. Does the same thing and imo is better and more customisable.
If you install the Harman Kardon mod, you must also install the firmware.
Just reflash the ROM and don't select that mod.
