Okay, I'm kind of curious what is causing this problem. I'm using NSCollab 1.09 and have used CM 7 RC2. Whenever I play music while using navigation, the navigation volume is very low when directions are being spoken. It's low enough where I won't hear it unless I turn the volume all the way up on the car stereo.
When I use navigation by itself, it's fine, the problem happens when I also play music at the same time. It never happened with CM 7 RC1 variations. I did do a complete wipe install with both roms that I mentioned earlier. Kind of wandering what's causing this to happen. Subsonic is my main music player.
Oh, the navigation volume is maxed out when this happened.
Any ideas?
Btw, searching for "navigation volume" brought up nothing useful.
I have exactly the same issue (almost) on my Desire HD.
When I have any sat nav (CoPilot or Navigator) running along with music app (PowerAMP or HTC Music) the sat nav voice iss too low - but only when I have audio cable plugged in!
Everything works fine when not audio cable is plugged in
running with stock android OS or with CM7.03-ns I have the same issues when using bluetooth... but only with third party music apps. if i use the builtin music player the navigation audio comes thru perfectly.
anyone ever find a solution to this issue? I have the same exact problem with my phone.
I also have this problem when I use Grooveshark in combination with Navigation. Haven't yet tried navigation plus stock music player though.. would be interested to know what others think...

I also have similar issue. Google navigation volume is way low when I am using TuneIn music internet radio player.

Same issue here with Tunein and Google Maps. Other music apps work fine, only Tunein has the issue.
Is this a Tunein bug? Any ideas?

I was happy to see that Pandora recently released an official app for Google Android. I love Pandora and have been using it on my PC and my old Windows Mobile phone for a while.
Since I've been using Pandora on Android I've noticed a strange bug. After playing a couple songs through Pandora, the stock Music app fires up on its own and starts playing over the top of Pandora. This is extrememly annoying! I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this problem and if so, has anyone found a solution.
The obvious solution is to switch to the music app and pause the song that is playing over the top of Pandora. However, this often locks up both apps requiring me to power off the phone to get Pandora to work again - then repeat this process over and over and over. Help!
This happens to me all the time, but I've not had the lock up problem. I usually listen on my headphones, and the button on the adapter piece pauses the Music app, so I don't have to switch around. Hope that helps.
Hi All,
Anyone use their Nexus S with Bluetooth audio much?
I use it in the car connected to a Parrot in car system, mostly for podcasts in BeyondPod and Spotify.
While I can use the play/pause button to stop playback (if I've started playback on the device itself), I can't use the same button to resume playback. No matter what I've tried so far, I cannot get it to work.
It's kind of annoying when I accidentally catch the pause button, and have to fumble around for the phone to resume.
I tried freezing the stock Music app to see if that was grabbing the bluetooth playback control from BeyondPod, but that didn't help.
Could it be specific to the rom I'm running, or is this a known issue with the way Android works right now?
Thanks for any info...

Unless there's something odd with your head unit then it's either an app or a rom issue. Play / pause / resume works fine for me over by with a stock rom foe the stock music player, slacker radio, audiogalaxy and audible.

works here also.....
Thanks for the replies. Sounds like it's worth some further investigation then. I'll flash stock and try a bit of trial and error.

So I tried flashing back to stock. Installed only Beyondpod and the same symptoms happened: pause ok, can't resume.
Then I installed Spotify, and found similar, although on one occasion pausing and playing Spotify caused Beyondpod to start. Only happened once though.
At this point, I'm thinking maybe the Parrot needs a software update. Especially if it's working OK for others.

Hello,
I am new to the Android world and attempted something yesterday I thought should work. I was using Google Music to playback MP3s and tried running Google Navigation. Whenever, I started Navigation, MP3 playback stopped. If I started Navigation, and then hit the home button to start MP3 playback, Navigation stopped.
Is this not possible? Should I being different apps for Navigation/MP3 playback which would allow this? Are there settings I am missing?
Thanks.
Well, here it works flawless... tried with 2.3.4 version and the new one 3.0...
But, it's kinda weird controlling volume, inside navigation, I can only set navigation volume. If I want to set music volume I need to switch to music app or launcher...

Thanks for the response - I tried it again and I figured out what I was doing incorrectly. I was using "Car Mode" and if you hit the Navigation button after Navigation is already running, it restarts the Navigation. You have to do a fancy swipe from the top bar to get to an app that is already running.
This leads me to my next question, in "Car Mode" is there a way to get to an app that is already running without a swipe from the top bar? I thought the whole point of "Car Mode" was that the buttons were big and you didnt need to be very accurate?
Thanks.
On my liberated Aria, Google Maps would always pause the music playing in the stock player when announcing directions.
On the HOX it seems like no matter what I do the Nav voice just talks through the music which makes it very difficult pick out directions. Has anyone else notice or succeeded in working around this issue?
I prefer it this way. I hated my music being paused. But I actually mute the Navigation voice all together.

It's odd that it does that. For notifications, it pauses the music, plays the notification, and unpauses it. I'd much rather have the music volume lowered while the notification plays so it's not as jarring. I'm surprised it's inconsistent.
I have my S3 connected to my car radio via Bluetooth. When I have music playing from my S3 and Google Navigation running , I noticed the audio cuts out supposedly when the lady is giving me directions but I hear nothing. After a few seconds, the music comes back.
If I don't have music playing, then the voice comes out loud and clear. Any one know how to fix this?

The navigation volume is independent of the bluetooth volume. Try starting navigation while disconnected from bluetooth and bumping up the volume then connect to your stereo.
I've never had this issue. For me, the navigation volume and music volume are both tied to the media volume setting.
