Audio problems in custom ICS roms. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all..
My phone even though is in normal profile and the notification and ringtone volumes are max, it doesnt ring when the call come. even the loud speaker stops functioning as the songs will be played but without sound. the same goes for video too..soundless video..after sometimes, may be after a reboot it will be back to normal. I am unable to find the reason and hence the fix for this.
It started with the miui 2.5.11 rom, then i flashed latest resurrection rom and now im in paraniod android rom v.5. in all the roms the problem is same. any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance.

Bizarre
I'm running resurrection remix and I've not experienced anything like that, but if someone calls while I'm listening to music, the volume of the music drops to nothing after the call. It's still playing but there's no volume until I pause and start again.

Also
The equalisers on both MIUI music player and DSP Manager seem to stop working frequently. Not a massive deal but it's annoying.

[Q] CM7 Thunderbolt sound problem

I wasn't able to post on the dev. part of the TB forum since I don't have 10 posts, I searched and couldn't find anything that really fit my problem.
My problem; I've been on CM7 for maybe a month now and it's starting to drive me crazy. When I'm listening to the radio or music or something at work and a notification sound plays, well it doesn't really play it just makes my music go silent for a few seconds then continues to play my music. That's a little annoying but I learned to live with it, but more times than not when I get a text or any other sound that will play over what I'm listening to my sound completely cuts out and doesn't come back, I hear a sort of static sound so I have to restart my phone. I ended up disabling all notification sounds so it doesn't do that but sometimes when I even load up skype when it has that sound play it does it. What would the problem be? any help would be great, thank you so much!
A little question, this is my first time installing a rom, lets say I want to update it, I get the latest kernal, that doesn't wipe everything on my phone right? It's basically just like an update? Again thank you so much!
CM7 is amazing, thank you for putting your time and effort into making it!

installing a kernel will not wipe your rom, but installing a rom will wipe out the kernel you had previously to whatever comes with the rom. It's also better to post questions generally here than the developer's forum.
FWIW I'm on stock rooted and every now and then I'll lose the mp3 player sound (player will show its playing, but no sound from headphones or back speaker) after the phone rings or some other alert goes off, and the only way I've found to get the mp3 player to provide sound again is to reboot.
So this might problem might not be limited to CM7.

[Q] Annoying buzzing noises when playing music?

Whenever I play my music, I hear buzzing/squeaking/whistling sounds behind the song (theyre not that loud but still)... I hear it with and without headphones and with different players (stock, doubletwist, etc). Is my phone damaged? Is there a fix? Is it common for this to happen? Ive had this problem since i got the phone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
(btw ive searched and could not find anything helpful)
do you have anything like dspmanager / equalizer on? I had a similar problem and it was caused by equalizer.
i had this problem when i flashed beats audio
but mine was louder
couldnt hear the song
just the buzzing noise
+1 to the problem with beats, reflash n remove equalizers of all kind and then see if its solved.
had the problem on stock rom using stock headphones...much less when using a different headset. used CM7 latr on and the problem was less...now it seems to be back..using GTR
Do u have beats or xloud in your rom
Mine has the same issue, stock rom. The buzz goes away when I use bluetooth headset.

[Q] GT-i9300 Running Resurrection Remix 4.4 kitkat Rom with audio problems

I have tried googling but it does not really give a direct answer.
I have a rooted galaxy s3 with Resurrection remix which I love, but I am experiencing some problems with audio. Initially, audio would not really play out of headphones unless I let the audio play out of speaker and then put my headphones back in again. After downloading Soundabout to help with this, it seems now that audio only plays out of my headphones when I use the Google play music widget on my homescreen and do not lock the device, if I try to enter the google play music app whilst I am listening to something, the music instantly stops coming out of my headphones but then continues if I go back to homescreen again. This is also the same it seems with Sound cloud. I have seen some suggestions, one of which is to do a factory reset but I would deeply rather not do this, is there any other method of fixing this? Audio works but it is rather temperamental and seems to only work when doing having it in a certain way. I have heard about an app called Viper4android, but I have not actually tried it yet.
A side note, but it is not priority to fix at the moment, I am also experiencing a shorter battery life then when I had my stock touchwiz rom and also my phone seems to get hotter at the bottom (like it would in an intense game) but when I am just on the homescreen using it a lot with a fair few apps open and doing a lot, is this normal on this rom? It kind of makes me fearful about using the rom too much in case I somehow damage my phone. Anyway, my main concern is the audio problem but if anyone can answer that as well that would be nice.
Apart from these problems, I am loving this rom and would really like to keep it as the performance is phenomenal compared to my stock samsung rom. Please help so that I do not have to go away from this brilliant rom because of some problems.
Simliar issues
I'm having very similar issues with CM11 on 4.4.2... Although my issue is that my headphones occasionally stop working and only work when I open Google Now... very weird. I have to reboot to get it right again. Haven't figured out how to replicate the bug yet.

[Q] Sound Artifact

Hey,
I'm using Crystal PA with nikita's Cyanogen 11 Extended Kernel on my d620.
I experience some "sound artifacts" / noise / interference when listening to music on my phone. Those are distorted sounds that occur randomly while listening to music with headphones or via phone speakers.
But the strange thing is , if I use CM's Apollo music player everything is normal.
I'd just use Apollo to play music, but it doesn't quite offer all the features I need.
Does anyone have any idea what the issue could be?
Would installing Viper4Android help?
EDIT: I'll reflash the Rom and see if it helps
I just reflashed the Rom and there are still artifacts.
I nailed DSP down to generate this issue.

Audio leaking from headphones to speaker

As tittle says, if you are listening to anything via headphones, and you receive a call, or adjust the volume of ring or alarm via sound config menu, your music will leak as soon the call stops, or the audio adjust rings out.
this can be very embarassing and annoying, as i tried with different headphones and a lot of roms (miui 8stable/beta, miui 9,aosp/Los based, xiaomi.eu and on top of that, different kernels)
(this is different from audio leak when you take a screenshot or use camera when you are on customs, though some roms already fixed it)
Try to reproduce it by yourself by putting some music and putting up a fake call with some APP from play store, or adjusting volumes from settings sound tab.
if you have this problem, comment below.
As i'm pretty annoyed with this, and cant fix it, i want to know if are more ppl with this same problem
Edit: after trying multiple times, ONLY stock stable miui (8.2.10) doesn't have this problem, would be nice if we could fix this on customs and i would be willing to help.
