So, I searched and couldn't seem to find the exact same issue. When I'm connected to a Bluetooth device, weather it be my car, sound-bar, or other external Bluetooth speaker, every 15-25 minutes or so when I'm listening to Google Play Music, the audio just stops playing. Even though it looks like its still playing in Google Play Music. I have to skip to the next song or restart the song to get audio back. Has anyone experienced this or know why it could be happening?
Stock Google Pixel XL on VZW
I had this same issue on my Pixel XL a few months back. It happened to me when I was listening to Google Play Music via bluetooth headphones (JayBird) while also going for a run with RunKeeper. The solution for me was to go into Settings -> Battery -> Optimizations and set Google Play Music to "Not Optimized". I haven't had the issue recur since then.
Good luck!

I'm having a big problem with my car sub playing bass when I play music from my phone with Google Music. The 6x9s and door speakers play fine except for bass off the sub with Google Music. CDs, the radio, and even Pandora play fine with all speakers including the sub. It's just the darn Google Play Music app giving me troubles. This is a huge inconvenience because all my music is stored in the cloud.
Is anyone else having this problem or can send me in the right direction for a fix?

no problem here sir! jammed the new Rick Ross the other day on the way home from work thru my auxiliary plug with absolutely no problem... crystal clear sound from components and two 12s... check the equalizer settings within the rom... i know on Clarks rom, the stock equalizer has 3d effect enabled by default and garbles the bass output unless u go in and turn it off... if that doesn't fix it then i would say try a different cable... i would assume u have downloaded ur music to ur device from the cloud? if u somehow manage to stream music to ur phone while driving then it's possible that google could be compressing the stream depending on the settings... check ur settings on that as well
I'm using the original LG watch and google music for offline music and podcast playing in the gym/running. I have a moto 360 coming shortly. I was hoping that with the newest update enabling wi-fi, transferring music to the 360 would be done via wi-fi instead of the painfully slow bluetooth. Has anyone had any luck with wear downloads via wi-fi or are we still stuck with bluetooth to push those audio files over to the watch?
Well, Moto360 doesn't have a speaker. How would you listen to a music then ? BT headphones ?
Care to explain this Gym/running thing about listening to music ?
I'm really interested now to have to keep a phone with me all the time.

For about a year google play music has had the option for local storage & playback on wear. If you have downloaded some content for offline playback on the phone your wear is paired with there will be additional options in settings under "Android Wear". There are quite a few articles about it that will walk you through the process.
However the phone will sync music to your wear via bluetooth (which can be slow for large podcasts) and I' curious if anyone using a wifi enabled watch has noticed if the syncing is done via wifi, since it's available with the newest update.
And I was wondering why I need an internal storage on the watch.
I just had it for 2 weeks now, so still figuring it out.
Thanks
Hi guys, since 6.0 update, when I listening to music on the go with play music, and I leave my phone untouched for a few minutes, the music stops playing for a few seconds or even longer.
Could It be the doze, that's messing with play music or something different. Did a clean install yesterday and the problem's still there.
Any ideas?
Thx.
Have you tried to ignore battery optimisation for Google play music?
Tried this on my phone after running into the same issue. Worked great, no more pausing!
Hey,
Ive been having a similar issue in my new phone. I've got the Huawei Mate 8, I've tried to disable battery optimisation for Google Play Music. But it seems that it is not possible for Play Music (it is not listed in the "ignore optimisation" app list.
Is there another way to do this? Is there a reason that "ignore optimisation" is not available for Google Play Music?
Thanks for any help.
Hi, I'm having the same issue with my phone (LG G3). I turned off the battery optimisation for the app and it seemed to resolve it but it's actually still doing it again. Any idea what else I may need to do? Not finding any answers no matter where I look. Thanks!
Whenever I get in my car and my bluetooth connects, google play music just starts playing whatever was last on on Google Music App. I'm a spotify user and would like to change the default from Google to Spotify. I can't seem to find a way to stop Google music from playing by default. It's very annoying. Works great if you use Google music, but otherwise, annoying.
Anyone having this issue? Anyone have a fix?
AFAIK there isn't a way to prevent media autoplay when connecting to (certain?) car stereos.
Interestingly enough, I don't think that the behavior is actually specific to GPM. I usually listen to podcasts in the car rather than music, and as long as the phone hasn't rebooted or GPM hasn't been used since Pocket Casts was playing, my podcast resumes when I get back in the car usually even if the notification has been closed. It may be the the Spotify app is missing some hook that allows it to take advantage of this feature, but I don't believe we have any way of affecting it directly.
BRO. This **** happened to me for like a week straight and I was getting pretty angry. I made the mistake of asking Google Assistant to play a song for me ONCE and every time I connected to a bluetooth device (usually my car) it started playing the song from where it left off. I don't know what I did to make it stop to be honest, so I'm not much of a help but I can confirm this is a very annoying issue.
I did NOT, however, uninstall Google Music, Disable it, or touch the app in any capacity. There's no option to prevent it from autoplaying, either. I might've let the song play out, but I'm afraid to open the app again to take a look.
I have a Dension GW52MO1 500S BT (adds BT media streaming to older german cars) that has play control problems just with Google Play Music. If I listen to YouTube or BeyondPod, Neutron etc it works correctly. What happens with Google Play Music is the first couple of seconds repeat over and over again. Also if I stop the music it immediately starts playing again (repeating first couple of seconds of track). I can get it to work by turning off Bluetooth between one and 4 times, each time waiting for it start playing by itself.
This behavior does not occur in our other car that has the Pioneer DEH80PRS.
This problem is a bug in Google Play Music, there is a Google Product Forum post on it
https://productforums.google.com/forum/?noredirect=true#!topic/play/FKxS7t1W1dA
My question is: Is there any tool I can install on the Pixel 2 XL to help me work around this issue? I tried using Tasker to automate turning Bluetooth on and off but it when I do that the repeat 1st second problem doesn't resolve itself like it does when I do it manually.
The Dension does not appear to have a way to turn off the autoplay (resume) feature which I think interacts with the bug in Google Play Music to cause the issue.
Thanks
