Hey all. Most of the threads with this question are unanswered.
Whenever I get a notification while listening to music, it mutes the music. This is completely unnecessary.
Putting the phone on Vibrate / Silent is not really a fix.
Is there anything I can do with a rooted N5 to disable this ?
Old Android used to play the message noise over the music which when on headphones used to deafen everyone so they changed it to mute instead

its completely necessary, people who use headphones would go deaf if it didnt.
Im pretty sure there isnt a way to disable this as of yet, since its a wanted feature for the majority
It's called audio focus and it's driven by the apps. Maybe changing your music player would change that behaviour but it's mostly a wanted feature as other said.
PS: neither setting none as tone will work? On many custom roms you will have a separate notifications volume but I find both solutions uncomfortable

Currently notification sounds stop the music playback (beats on/off doesn't matter). Is there a way to stop it from doing that? I feel like when I initially got it (1.83 I think) it didn't use to, but since then I have moved on, so I don't remember.
Has anyone found a way to make it stop doing that? The only work around I found is to mute the ringer volume first and then start playing audio.

the notification sound is doing what it is suppose too, you can mute or disable notification sounds then your audio will not be stopped down side would be you will have to check your phone for text, emails etc.
Really? In my previous phone it would mix in nicely with the notification being lost than the music. That way the music wouldn't cut out completely.

The music cuts out during notifications on the stock ROMs (1.73 and 1.85) same as for all 3 HTC Android devices I've owned.
If it blended in to the music, you might not notice it, depending on the volume and ringtone used.
Just turn the ringer volume down. I wouldn't mind it except it doesn't pause the music so there is a few second gap in the song.
Ah. I see. This is my first HTC android.
Thanks

How do I stop the music from pausing when a notification comes in?
I don't want to mute notifications. With my HTC Evo, it would reduce the volume on the music, but keep playing it.
Is there a system setting for this?

When you listen to music just put your phone on vibrate, you still feel the notification but it doesn't mute the music. I use Spotify so I know this works.

Thanks for the tip. This will work when I'm using it at work. But at home, I have my surround sound system connected to the phone via bluetooth. So I have Spotify playing on the surround speakers and it's annoying for it to interrupt the music - but I still need to hear the notification when I'm in another room.
Any ideas?
I have never used spotify, but this may work. If you have tasker, you can probably make a profile for when you connect to your bluetooth, and make a task which will put your phone on vibrate, but allow you to create a custom notification sound play using a different audio stream (like alarm or media) Some of choices for audio stream should allow you to hear the notification without it pausing spotify.

Thanks. Wish I could try it out before buying. There's no other way?
Late to the party here. Wtf is with the last post date? 1970? Anyways.. *edit, now the date displays correctly. ****in' tapatalk!
Have you tried an app called "sound about" in the play store? Check it out and see if it does what you need.
Hi, as everyone know, there are 3 different volume in our nexus 5.
First is Music, video,games & other media.
Second: Ringtone & notification.
Third: Alarm.
Usually if I'm in class, I would press the volume down button until I'm at vibration mode. Then sometimes when I got bored in class and start playing with my phone, the volume will be very loud when i forgot to turn off the sound for games when i was looking at some youtube video or playing some games.
This is really annoying. What's the point of changing to silent mode when there is still volume at the games or video? I know iphone have the toggle for silent mode and that is seriously way useful than this.
You can always install expandable volume controls via xposed or custom ROM.
I know it is frustrating and an overlooked feature I think. When I first got my nexus 5 I was like come on guys you didn't fix this?

Yeah I have the same issue with the sound on this like the OP. Been using 3rd part apps like Llama and Silent Scheduler to quickly change/view sound settings from notification drawer. Works well but I wish something like this built in the OS.

Have you ever run into a bug where you set a task to change the media volume to 8 or higher automatically, upon connecting headphones? It seems half the time it gets stuck at 6 or 7, presumably because the volume level warning message never gets its chance to show up.

No actually I haven't had a chance to program tasker that much yet. The only task I have set for it so far is to play the TF2 medic sound byte "I am fully charged!" when my battery level gets 100% when charging
I know this isn't quite the answer your looking for as far as just turning the volume down to disable all sounds but just some suggestions... I use expandable volume control and You could go into settings/profile and set a quiet profile or go to settings/sounds and set quiet hours.
Ok... So... I use poweramp and viper audio in case it makes a difference.
When listening to music and receiving a text my phone used to quickly mute for a split second.
Now my phone has started playing the message tone over the music
Any ideas why it's randomly changed what it does?

Have you made any changes to your phone leading up to the change?
Nope, unless an app updated making the difference?

Completely stock GPM user here. My volume gets temporarily lowered while the notification sound plays.
Maybe its a power amp feature that was patched in?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Maybe? Cus I've always used poweramp. So maybe an update changed it
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I haven't used PowerAmp in a while, but I believe there is a toggle for what to do when a notification plays (pause, lower volume, or do nothing).
I'm on the stock g920T---OCG rom, rooted, and looking for a way to control the music in my pocket.
Anyone care to teach me how to make this mod?
Maybe it already exists somewhere? :highfive:
Such an awesome mod that really does need to be added as an option in stock ROMs more often. Be much better than accidentally blasting mega volume into your ears because you've already accepted responsibility for bypassing safe volume once today :3
In other words, BUMP!
I haven't seen it yet. Maybe that'll be my next mission.
I agree. This should be an option on stock roms. I'm surprised that it isn't by now.
Also, whenever I get a notification while listening to music it'll fade out then play notification sound then music again.
That is a nice feature for calls but not notifications. Is there any way to change it?
For now I just turn off wifi/data.

Do you use the stock music player? I use Power Amp and don't get that. Unless it's because I have notifications set to mute?

Yea that's gotta be it, thanks. I didn't think of that.
I'm also looking for a way to do this mod.
I need this! Please!
Root your phone, install xposed then download wanam kit and go to the sound option and u can skip tracks with screen off.. Your welcome
