strange headset behaviour when screen off - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

I have a wired Sennheiser headset with 3 buttons. On Nougat, the behaviour of those buttons was the same, weather the screen was on or off. The middle button would pause or resume whatever was currently playing. However, now on 5.0.1 when the screen is off the behaviour is different in different apps, while when the screen is on it just does pause/resume.
Screen off and pressing middle button:
Pocket Casts: changes headset mode to headphone mode and back instead of pause/resume
Spotify: Pauses playback, switches to headphone mode, but pressing again does only play the song for a fraction of a second. I have to turn the screen back on to continue playback
Audible: Pauses playback, switches to headphone mode, but pressing again sometimes plays audiobook for half a second and then pauses. I have to turn the screen back on to continue playback
My bluetooth headset does not have this problem. There the button just pauses or resumes.
I would just like to have my pause/resume functionality back, I don't care about switching between headset and headphone mode!

Hahaha, I actually went back to Nougat once but accidentally upgraded to Oreo last night when I clicked the wrong thing in the annoying update message... Might try out one of the other Oreo roms...

Volume buttons to change music track?

Hello,
Not sure if this is something at all possible BUT I have a mount in my car for my HD and connect my phone to the stereo. Now, if I am driving and the screen goes to 'Sleep' mode, it can be kind of cumbersome to turn the screen back on just to change a track.
I was wondering if it was at all possible to put a code in place for the buttons that WHEN the screen goes to sleep and IF Windows Media Player is playing for example, that the volume keys can change tracks up or down instead of the volume?
I know someone will say 'well just turn sleep mode off' but this is not something I want to do.
Thanks in advance.
Hi, you could use AE Button Plus to map the Volume Rocker to up/down arrows, then slide to the music tab in TF3D, play the muisc and set screen display off.
To play next/prev song, just press the rocker key once.

Headset button function

Hi,
I use the headset button to control my music. From what I have figured out, one press pauses/plays music... two fast presses skips the track... I have tried this, and it works. But sometimes when I double tap the button, it starts ringing the last person I called Can I turn this off? This is really annoying, I seriously do not see why anyone would want this feature.
Iv'e tried one of those headset button apps, and wasn't very impressed, It only worked half of the time.
I mainly just want to stop the button calling people
Anyone any idea?
Thanks.
If you're using PowerAMP try turning on the 'High Priority' headset button handler. If that doesn't work or you have any other music player there's a free app called 'JAYS Headset Control' (works for any headset not just JAYS). Also has a lot of customisation you can do to your headset button actions .

[Q] Peculiar problem with inline controls & unmuting...

Not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but when my Note II is set to mute or vibrate, the sound switches back on whenever I single-press the button on the supplied earphones. Is this some bizarre setting somewhere, or is it a known fault, or is it just me?
--update-- When listening to music and I press the button, the sound momentarily comes out of the speaker on the phone itself before pausing & switching to unmuted. Looks like a problem with PowerAmp; doesn't do it with the stock player.

[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?

Headset button delay

Hi, I have the headset that comes with the phone (MH-EX300AP) and im having a very annoying bug, if I use the stock music app, the physical button on the headset has a 2 second delay when I press it.
Only happens on the stock music app, I also use Huawei music app and it reacts instantly.
halp!
