media volume - phone and bluetooth - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm noticing some issues with the media volume. In short, there are times I can get the phone in a state where media is playing, volume is all the way down, and when I hit volume-up ONCE it goes to full volume (over bluetooth). This is not very pleasant when playing media over a bluetooth speaker in the morning and it goes full volume.
Steps to replicate:
1. With media NOT playing and bluetooth disconnected use the volume rocker bring up volume menu.
2. Expand the volume menu to show media volume, select any volume then select minimum/off volume.
3. Turn the bluetooth speaker on and wait for it to connect
4. Start playing music (in my case google play music) - no sound is emitted from bluetooth speaker
5. Hit volume rocker UP - sound level jumps to last known bluetooth volume + 1
If I leave the media volume alone while media is NOT playing, then everything works fine. It's the moment I adjust that volume when it doesn't have priority on the volume rocker.
When media is NOT playing, I noticed that the media volume (in the menu that appears when changing volume) doesn't always match what is under SETTINGS>SOUND & NOTIFICATION. I think this might be a related issue.
Anyone else experience this issue?

Adjusting Volume in Music Tab

Hey guys,
I have an issue where i am unable to change the volume when listening to music via the music tab in manilla (using 2.1 atm). The volume rocker changes the system volume, but the music does not get any louder or quieter, unless i put the device into silent or vibrate. The music tab doesnt have any volume controls either (an oversight imo). Can anyone advise me with how i can adjust the volume?
Thanks
Any ideas?
Volume rocker changes music volume fine on mine. Check on the thread for your rom, perhaps others have had similar experiences and can help you.

volume control

Hi! How can i adjust the volume of the music player without changeing the volume for ring tones?
first of all, most music players have their own volume control (wmp, tcpmp, coreplayer...), which does not influence the system volume.
secondly, if you have to use the actual volume keys on the side of the device, you can split the volume control to separate the system volume and the ringer, go to the manila settings tab, sound & display and switch Single Volume to NO (see screenshot)
music player
Ok. Thank you. I just don`t found the volume control for the music player from HTC.

[Q] Bluetooth music volume defaults to minimum level

I am familiar with the "Music, Video, Games, & Other Media," setting within the Volume menu in settings. I have that set to just under max. My issue is that when I listen to music in my car or on my bluetooth headphones the volume almost always starts at the minimum level and I am forced to manually turn it up. It seems to be related to when the phone's ringer is set to vibrate but it has also happened when the ringer is on high. My previous smartphone was an iphone 4 and on that phone the bluetooth music volume had nothing to do with the ringer settings. Part of my frustration is that it's not a consistent problem, occasionally the music volume defaults to what I have it set to in the settings menu. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[Q] Volume Rocker Issue

my volume up down key now changes the ringtone volume as opposed to media i mean my songs volume. This happened, all of a sudden, how to change the behavior back to media

[Q] Volume stuck on call volume.

My volume buttons will only adjust the call volume, even when I'm not in a call.
Yesterday I was listening to music and tried to adjust the volume from the lockscreen, but when I did the phone adjusted the phone volume instead. So I went into my music player app and tried there, same result. I pressed the volume again, and this time expanded the volume panel, and was able to adjust the volume from there. I then started playing around with the volume to see what it would do. I toggled vibrate/mute and the volume panel showed no change in the phone volume. It was after this that I noticed that the label on the volume panel next to what was normally the ringtone volume read "call volume" instead. I figured it was a weird one-time glitch, so I rebooted. No change. Pulled the battery, success! But a few minutes later I had the issue again. Hard reset again, same result. So it seems my phone thinks it is always in call.
I can only adjust music volume from the panel and only adjust ringer volume from the sound settings.
Any ideas as to why it is doing this?
Problem solved!
Apparently having www.weavesilk.com open in my chrome browser was causing the problem. I closed the weavesilk tab and my volume works just fine now. Weird.
