Audio issue on all TW JB Roms - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I am having the same issue on all Jelly Bean Touchwiz roms with audio playing. When I have my headphones plugged in and music playing through samsung sound player, apollo, or beyond pod etc., and I turn the screen off, the music will start playing out of the speaker on the phone and not the headphones. I need to turn the screen back on pause it and play it again with the screen on.
This is a really annoying issue, especially when using the phone for music at work. Does anyone know why this occurs or how to fix it?
thanks

YES. I keep having this problem as well! I also have a problem on occasion where a track will play through and stop at the end. The only way to move on to the next track is to turn the screen back on. (where normally the next track on the album would play)

Glad other people are experiencing it as well, I would like a dev to comment on the issue if any are experiencing this.

[Q] Google Music doesn't advance songs with screen off.

I haven't seen this posted anywhere, but no matter which rom I use (tried them all, currently on Revolver 0.2) when the screen is off, Google Music won't advance to the next song in the playlist. It buffers and is loaded because as soon as I hit the power button to turn the screen on (don't even have to swipe to unlock) the next song starts playing.
Anyone else have this issue or an idea of how to fix it? It's frustrating only listening to one song at a time. Thanks!
noticed that aswell i had it also play a few songs before i had to repower it.
Same here. But worse, when I turn on the screen to advance the song, there is now crackling and static in the audio, which only goes away by closing and restarting the Music app.

Yeah, I get the crackling too, but I've found that it goes away if I just pause it for two seconds and then resume playing.
Very annoying indeed, unless you set the screen to never turn off. Anyone know of any 3rd party app that can advance through the songs?
I think this is an issue with Google Music. I sometimes have the same issue with GM on my Evo.
I have no issue with GM on my MyTouch 4g.
Mine advances to next songs fine with screen off, been using it for a couple weeks, in fact I'm listening to Adema now on it as I work and it's advancing fine with screen off.
Change your WiFi Sleep Policy to never. I think what's happening is that when its going to the next song, WiFi is deactivated because your tablet is in idle status.

My Tf wifi is set to never, still has the same problem. Google Music has a bug, all of my other music players work flawlessly. The GM pause even happens to me with local music.
Ignore me I should have read the thread title before posting, apologies to all!

ubermusic doesn't support Google Music.
Guess you don't know what Google Music is?
Google Music syncs with a online playlist. More info @ http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/11/google-music-beta-walkthrough-what-it-is-and-how-it-works-vide/
Thanks, to be perfectly honest I skim read the title and just assumed it was the stock music player app that was being referred to as that has exactly the same issue. I knew of Google music before.
Sorry for the misplaced reply.
Looks like this is fixed in 3.2, at least on mine. No more reaching for the power button to goto the next track. Thanks Google.

Happening to me on 3.2 but on my acer iconia both the lack of next song and static
I'm on the latest firmware and it doesn't seem to be fixed. Clear Data and everything else doesn't seem to work as well. Any ideas?

[Q] ICS problem with music, podcast player and everything audio related

Hi all,
ICS 4.0.3
Ver. 3.32.707.10
I was wondering if anybody else is encountering similar problems.
Ever since the ICS update, my music player, podcast player (beyondPod) and e-book audio player have gone crazy.
I cannot understand the logic behind it, but the player either stops, skips, pauses, jumps... u name it. Not all the time, but (please do not laugh!) when the car door is slammed shut.
It got me thinking. Is it the shock or the vibration? Tapping or gently bashing the phone does not disrupt the player. Only door of the car closing. It happens every morning and every night when someone gets off the car before me.
Rebooting, taking battery out, clearing out some stuff from my Micro SD... simple stuff to eliminate causes have had no success.
Only rebooting the phone can solve the problem. Force closing the app does not help.
I was thinking that after a heavy days use, maybe the RAM was running out, bu the problem starts even within 20 min of reboot, with no other unnecessary apps running.
I am using Jays headset app since my headphone has that button that allows me to stop/play skip and volume control etc. This has nothing to do with it? I have had it for a while since Gingerbread...
If it were apps from the market that was problematic, i can understand. But since this affects the stock music player as well as other audio related features, I am baffled.
Anybody else? Suggestions?
Found the definitive cause. But still have no solution.
OK guys and gals...
I had my podcast player and stock sense music player do crazy stuff on me, ever since the ICS update.
Maybe the scratched paint is the cause of headache for some people, and covering/insulating it may relieve it of problems, but my feeling is that for quite a few that have posted on this thread, their reasons of malfunction differ, and in fact, are on the same boat as I am.
Please read my post which is the link below to understand the full symptom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24511005
I am not sure if ICS update from GS is related to this problem directly or indirecty. All I know is that I had a happy sensation until the update OTA.
Here is the reason why I know that neither the paint or back cover of sensation is the cause of skipping/jumping/stopping/calling last contacted....
I tried the experiment with the back cover off, but I could not replicate the problem, thus no paint chip, back cover or short circuit of any kind is the answer.
So, by method of deduction, with the cover off, I tried wriggling the headphone in the socket to see if that had any effect. None. I tried plugging and unplugging. None. I tried using the remote button to control the music app and the podcast player. No problem. The play/pause/vol up and down etc all worked fine. I even uninstalled the jays app and tried. Without the app, the button on my headset does play and stop, answer and end calls. It got me thinking, and the environment it caused the symptoms only could point to the mic on my headphones.
And guess what? It is the bloody Microphone on the headset. I bet you there are some of you with this problem using the stock headset supplied that have built in hands free.
Basically, the pressure spike caused by slamming of he car door, is the same effect as blowing into the mic of the headset. And once this is done, the only way you can stop is reboot.
Since there have been no posts on this thread, and while I was hunting desperately for answers, I came across a different thread. Similar symptoms. I posted there too, so u might want to take a peep.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24668109#post24668109
Weird symptom. Possible solution? (Apart from using headsets without mic)
I have the same problem with my Sensation after i flashed the ICS. I have flashed two different custom ICS and with both i had the same problem. The music app goes crazy. I haven't find any pattern on what is that that cause the music app go crazy. When I touch the jack of the headphones (the original headphones of the Sensation) the app start forwarding, skipping track pause, etc. Also the same happens when i put the phone in my pocket. I haven't found any solution but maybe is the signal from the microphone as you said. When i shake the jack i think that signal noise i created and makes the app go crazy.
I hope someone will find a solution soon.
I just found a way to hear music in my ICS Sensation. I just disabled the default music app in the app settings that comes with the rom and i have installed the ESfile explorer which has its own music player. I am using ESFileExplorer's music player and i don't have problems till now...
Hope this is useful for someone.
I think issue is software related. Look here:

Does it happen ONLY when using headsets? I have the same problem, but is caused by the jack connector (only in ICS). It randomly sends signals that the phone understand as multimedia commands. If you remove the headsets and play the music with the speaker, no problem at all.
Crap.

[Q] Music player issues on JellyBean?

Hiya, sorry possibly Noob question. I am running cleanRom 5 and am having the same issues below that were outlined in the synergyrom thread.
Namely, when i get to the second song in a playlist, it stops and my only remedy is to force stop the music player. I do notice that it seems to keep playing the song after the song is over. That is, if I have a 3:30 long song, the player will show that it is playing 4 minutes or 5 minutes or however long I let it go, and thus is not skipping to the next song.
And this morning it started playing from the phone speaker after a couple of songs going through earphone (actually speakers through the earphone jack)
I know I did not have these issues on Synergy ICS build.
And I would post is the dev thread but A: it seems to occur on both ROMS on JB and B: Too much of Noob to be allowed to post there!
Edited to say this stock music player issue...

Still with both, I'm also experiencing some bugs with the music player. Freezes every now and then and FC's. Weirdest thing is sometimes I'm listening to music with headphones and when it changes to the next song it will start playing out the phone speakers like it forgot headphones were plugged in. Pause and play and it recognizes the headphones again. I also get random dropouts every now and then during playback with the screen off.
Does this with play music and apollo.
I'm also having issues with Google Music player - it will play a couple of songs and then just stop. I can exit out of the application and try to restart it but it never plays again until I either reboot the phone or kill the Google Music process and restart it.
I have not, however, had any issues with the music playing out of the speakers when the headset is plugged in.

[Q] JellyBean VRBLK3 Headphone Bug While Gaming

Can someone please try to replicate this bug. Basically when listening to music over earphones using the stock Samsung music player, if i launch a game, the music immediately cuts off from my earphones and blasts out of the phone speaker on the back. The 2 games I've tried is Ski Safari and Subway Surf. This is quite annoying since I like to listen to music while playing a game. Instead, it blasts out of the phone speaker and I end up panicking and stopping the music on my commute. Can someone please confirm that this is not my phone specific and is a universal ROM bug? Thank you in advance.
VRBLK3 OTA
The way to fix this seems to be the plug the headphones in and out. However when you re-launch a game the bug will replicate itself.
I am running stock jb leak 3 as well and can confirm using the Samsung music player and opening ski safari with headphones plugged in, the volume did not change to the speaker.
Hope that helps out.

I had this happen to me the other day. I am on CleanROM 5 & that has never happened before. I have been on the rom for a few weeks. Listening to the headphones & the next song in cue starts playing out of the phone speaker. I had to unplug/plug in the headset to get it working. weird.

Bumping this because the K3 OTA still has this issue. Anyone have this experience still?

I'm seeing an issue like this as well with Verizon JB OTA.
Another thing I'm noticing is that while I am listening to a podcast using Google Listen and I get a text message, the audio pauses as expected in my headphones, but when it comes back on, it does so at a really loud volume and then it ramps back down to what it was before.
I've also noticed that when listening to podcast and playing a game like Angry Birds where you can be taken to a video ad, sometimes the video ad's audio begins playing through the speaker instead of the headphones. But then, other ad's audio works as expected through the headphones. When the audio begins playing via the speaker instead of headphones, I have to unplug the headphones and plug them back in to get resumed podcast audio back into headphones.
I'm not rooted and fully stock. This was definitely not an issue with ICS so it's new.

[Q] [CM10] weird sound issue?

This happens when I am listening to music on any player Apollo, google music, ect. I play a song on my speaker and go to pause the song and then 2 seconds later the song will start again but pause itself after 1 seconds. Its a huge inconvenience because when i pause my music I don't need it to start even though it stops after a few seconds. had this issue with all the jellybean nightlies. I am on the latest build. Issue is also present when i have headphones in. Only this time their is no issue is when I pull my headphones from the jack. the music doesn't play for a few seconds out the speaker.

Seriously? Did you read the last page of the CM10 dev thread. This issue has been very well covered and a solution is described. Why would you make a new thread for this?

I'm seeing this issue also. I tried looking through the CM10 dev threads (including the nightly build thread) for the coverage and solution you mentioned, but cannot find it. Would it be possible to post a link to it?
Thanks.
