[Q] Media volume decreases after notification? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm using AOKP rom and stock google music player (also happens on Apollo player) but when I get a notification while listening to music on my headphones, the music pauses to play the notification but when the music resumes the volume has decreased. It doesn't resume at the volume before the notification. To resume to the volume I was at I have to push the volume key. really annoying when getting heaps of notifications.
I've search all my settings and can't find anything related to it. I've also changed the 'Link volume" settings on and off but either way it doesn't help.
Anyone else having this problem or know of a fix??
Cheers,
Anand

That's a known issue and it will never be fixed as that part of the code is not open source.
This issue is being carried over from sgs2.

O OK thanks. Does anyone know if it can be fixed by using media player?

For people who care, I found a temp fix. Just put your notifications on vibrate or silent while listening to music.

[Q] CM9 - Notifications stops music

Hi,
When I receive a notification while listening to muaic it stops the playback. Anything I can do? I can't enable voodoo sound on CM kernel, and don't want to change a kernel for that.
Thanks

Yeah, this is a bug in CM9. Changing the volume using the volume keys should work to bring the music back
Thanks

But is a reported bug? It'll be solved soon?
Bump. Same issue. Can't find it on http://review.cyanogenmod.com
The bugg is still there with CM9 RC2. WTF !
Really? I thought that the changelog said they fixed it?
I think their change log meant when u get a notif, the music won't stop playing but the volume decreases on its own.. kinda irritating though

[APP] DSP Manager - Audio Enhancement

Hi...
Im using this as an Audio Enhancer... It may force close if you get a Voice call when you are listening to music. Just install it... Start playing music... then open DSP manager and adjust the setting in it... gives a decent bass effect with the stock headset itself....
Runs better with Google Music.... because once you run DSP Manager, you can control it from Sound Settings menu of Google Music...
Give it a try!
I was just thinking about this app n then you posted it.
But Bro you have any later version???

This works great on my Razr except for one issue. Whenever the player moves to a new song, it plays it at full volume irrespective of the volume I set it at. Anyone having similar issues? Any known solutions?

[Q] Notification sounds not playing through headphones

Curious if anyone else has noticed this / knows how to "fix" it.
When I have my headphones plugged in, the notification sounds (eg the default new message "whistle") comes out the speaker instead. The sound in the headphone (music) will mute during this. I've had to resort to turning the notification volume off during work hours, so the sound doesn't disturb others at work - surely these sounds should be coming through headphones while they are plugged in?
Hello,
I'm with the same issue! It's very odd...
Any thoughts about this? Btw, I'm not using stock headset (I'm not used to in-ear headphones).
Yeah add another +1 to this....!!!
Not tried with stock headphones I have a set of Bluetooth ones and I get all notifications through them .
I'll take look in settings .

Actually I double check again, theres a "notification" sound going through headset. the only problem is it's playing simultaneously with the phone speaker. Really annoying specially if I'm in the office cause others can hear the notification sound too.
An android bug, apparently

This is a long-standing Android bug that manifests on many, though not all, phones. Google for "android notification sounds headphones" and you find many complaints about it, and a Google bug report with comments going back to 2010.
There is a apparently an easy way to patch it if your phone is rooted (though I cannot find info on exactly HOW) and there is a script here on XDA for use with the Tasker app ($6 or so in the Playstore) that can address it.
Other than that, the only thing to do to minimize annoyance to your coworkers is turn notification sounds to silent when using headphones. There are volume profile apps that can do this automatically.
In this bug report https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6696 and this one https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16667 it said that's a problem with ICS, that is supposed to be fixed in JB and that CM have their own fix for this.
Let's hope that S3 JB release will fix it.
this problem has been bugging me too..hope its fixed in the next update.

Headphone Problems

Hey everyone, I've been having problems with my headphones but they're not the cause of the problem. Sometime when I want to listen to music on my N7100 I plug in the headphones press play but no sound comes out. Once I remove the headphones, reboot the phone, open play music and insert my headphones again I can usually listen to music again. This problem also occurs in different apps such as YouTube. The problem comes randomly. I am running CM 10.1.3. I would be very grateful if the problem is/can be resolved. Thanks a lot!!!
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
That might be a software issue, so head over to the CM thread (if there is any) in the N7100 section and ask there. People will probably know what to do.
Will do thanks.

Loud speaker

When watching YouTube or anything else that has to do with the loud speaker. While watching a video turn the volume all the way down. I hear buzzing noises and pops. Anyone else?
Edit: I noticed this when i did the volume boost mod and promptly removed the mod. but it is still present just not as loud.

When I play videos , right after I pause it, I can hear tiny buzzing noise for 3 secs, then it stops. Whatever sound setting I use, cant get rid of that tiny buzz. May i know your setting, can you get rid of the buzz completely?
Edit : I never try playing videos with volume all the way down, I just did, and the buzz is there as long as the video is being played, but when I pause it, I still can hear it for another 3 secs, then it stops.
