Volume Fluctuation - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

Hey guys, got my phone a couple weeks ago, I love it but one issue, the volume is constantly changing up and down during videos or music. It does it with speakers, headphones or Bluetooth. I've tried disabling any sound effects apps or normalization to no effect.
Has anyone experienced this or have a solution?

Just giving this a bump.

I haven't experienced it. Did you try wiping cache and./or data? That would be my first to do. Then if check each app I have downloaded.

Volume does change
I love the Moto z play, too. But when I am listening to music or watching a video, and there's a notification or incoming call, the volume is reduced and don't go back to normal.
I had to close and reopen the app.

[Q] Xperia r800at force closing volume buttons? What?

So, I used wotanserver to flash r800a to my xperia play r800at, and for some reason my phone does the single vibrate, freeeeeeeeeeeze, then triple vibrate thing when I'm playing music. Here's how I replicated the situation
1) open stock music player from widget.
2) start playing song with earbuds in.
3) push power button to lock screen
4) push volume up to turn up volume, and there is a very quick vibration
5) music stutters, lags, sometimes completely freezes until the 3 vibrations which signify that something was force closed.
6) depression that my phone doesn't like having its volume changed.
Has anybody else experienced this? Any advice? I also use poweramp, but I haven't tried it on this phone because I really like the stock SE music player app.
Any help will be appreciated!
---EDIT---
The music continues to play after this sequence of events, so it's not a MAJOR issue, but it's still pretty frustrating.

Issues with equaliser

On both CM9 and AOKP, I've used the preinstalled equaliser and when I skip songs, there like a popping sound and sometimes, if I skip enough times, the sounds will go to the maximum regardless of what the settings is and cannot be changed except for muting without a reboot. Also, when that happens, it'll start playing out the speakers even if headphones are in. Has anyone else experienced this and knows a solution?

[Q] Bluetooth Audio "ducking"

Hi Guys,
I have a bit of a weird issue. When I'm playing music with the stock "Play Music" app via Bluetooth, the volume decreases a couple notches when I hit the power button to wake up the screen. It's similar to when a text comes in and the volume of the music dips a bit for the text notification to play. The difference is that the volume doesn't come back up afterwards. Any thoughts? Is this a known issue?

is anyone having sound issues?

I'm having a strange problem where notification sounds will spontaneously start playing at super low volumes. And the only way to rectify this temporarily is to do the hardware check under device help that was mentioned in another post. However this solution vanishes after the phone is restarted.
I noticed this with the stock notification. So I installed other notification using Zedge. They seem louder.

It's not a stock notification issue. I tried using an external sound. Same problem. It's really annoying and obviously a software glitch. I'm just surprised no one else is having the issue? Again the fix I'm using while effective at making the sound louder for notifications, stops the volume of media from being able to be controlled via the volume buttons.
I am having the sound issue as well.
The first time I noticed it, I was playing with the JBL speaker and when I took it off the volume was low...both for media and notifications. After a reboot, media and notifications seemed fine. Later I was showing a co-worker the JBL Speaker...this time, stopping the music before removing the Mod...the sound volume sounded fine. I think it may have something to do with removing the Mod while its being used??? Can anyone else recall what they were doing when they noticed the difference in audio levels?
I'm not doing anything... when I reboot EVERYTIME, the volume is messed up... It takes me messing with "device help" to get it working again.
Facing the same issue.
Let's hope they will fix this issue in next software update.

Media audio goes silent after a few seconds?

Hey folks,
I've had a problem recently with my S7 Active, that if I play a media file, music or what's app voice message etc, that it goes silent after a second or two. It appears to lower in volume very quick, not just cut out, and no matter what my volume is set to on the phone, I can't get the volume back again until I close the app, open it again and start the audio again, but then it will cut out again. Some times it will play fully, but I can't understand what's stopping it.
Any feedback would be great!
Happened to me after enabling Google Assistant. Disabled it and now audio is normal. Someone commented that GA is always listening, so might be choking audio stream.
Thanks for that! It seems to have fixed itself I think. I don't think I did anything, maybe it was just an app that was glitchy and updated itself and fixed the issue. I'll keep an eye out for it, but think it's ok
