[Q] Playing music while on a phone call. - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

When on a phone call, i can play music as loud as the phone allows and no one has ever been able to hear it? Am i crazy? Or is android doing some behind the scenes work to help me keep the fact that i'm ignoring my girlfriend, a secret? any insight would be super appreciated. and anyone who didn't know you could play music while on a phone call... you can. it really helps when you're on hold and the hold music sucks. (usually does)

Peculiar things I noticed with my Infuse.

Not really big deals to me but whenever I take a picture with the front camera and I try to send it over mms, the person can't see it. They download it like normal but when viewing the msg, they don't see the picture. I'm pretty sure its because of their phone but I'm curious as to why it wont work.
The other thing is that one time when I was listening to music and I had some JVC Extra Bass headphones plugged in, someone called so I answered by sliding the bar on the screen as usual and when I answered, the music stopped and and the call connected and then right away, the music continued again with the call still connected and the caller could hear the music a little. That only happened once but I haven't tried to repeat it so I don't know how common it is.
If anyone could give me a little insight about it, please do. I'm really curious about these two things.

[Q] Music plays when answering phone. How to make it stop?

When I answer my phone or make a call, the music player also starts and I hear the music on top of my conversation. Thus I cannot hear what the other person is saying.The person at the other end does not hear the music and when the phone hangs up, the music gets louder.
Now, I rarely even use the music player. But the only way to shut off the music is to go into the player and pause it. But it will start up again when the phone rings.
It generally stops if I reboot, but then intermittently, the problem recurs.
This is obviously extremely annoying. Any solutions?

[Q] CM10 not playing true stereo sound?

I was listening to audio on my Skyrocket in my car when I noticed the track I was listening to sounded off. I was listening to this song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-DuC0tE7V4 (Lollipop by The Chordettes. yeah yeah, wtf? I had Lollipop Chainsaw on my mind for some reason at the moment..)
I noticed that the right speaker wasn't really coming through, or at least not completely. I don't know if this is isolated to my phone or if this is a CM10 issue. To double check this, I listened to this track via bluetooth to my cars' speakers, direct audio input, and also just listening on the phone itself and each time I couldn't hear the "far" right side of the track. I also tried this track as well and found the same issue (Dude Looks Like A Lady by Aerosmith)

Anyone familiar with either of these songs will immediately recognize that something doesn't sound right (no pun intended). If you're not familiar, listen on your computer with some headphones and if you're experiencing the same thing as me then you'll notice it.
Is anyone else experiencing this or do I have a faulty install/phone on my hands? Sadly the warranty just expired, so I'm hoping it's not my phone, but I don't want to go and change my ROM unless I absolutely have to.
Sorry for the bump, but can someone please help me with this? This takes not even 30 seconds to test. You don't have to listen to both songs for more than 10 seconds each to realize if you're getting real stereo sound (minus the time you potentially get hit with the stupid YouTube ads.)

Music autoplays after call

I have the AT&T version of the S2 and the Note 5. Both are paired with my Motorola Boom bluetooth headset. Whenever I place or take a call from the S2, the stupid Samsung music player starts up through the headset as soon as I hang up the call. Does this happen to anyone else and what can I do to stop it from happening?

You somehow enabled the Muzak setting, which provides elevator music between calls.
Kidding aside, sounds like a bug in a feature... IF you are using the music player and a call comes in, it will automatically pause during the call, and then automatically resume when the call finishes.
I'm guessing the music player was "active" -- i.e. you had used it, and it was an active app but in the background, paused from when you had last paused it. After a call, the watch probably blindly sends out the "done with call" even to all active apps, and the music app simply starts playing again.
As a workaround, try bringing up Recent Apps (like many others, I've assigned the double-press of the home key to this function to get to it easily), and kill off the music player when you're not using it.
It was suggested in another thread to close all apps regularly to improve battery life. I've taken to doing this, especially after some apps that seem to be poorly designed in terms of memory usage, etc., and have seen meaningful gains in battery life.
