I have a UK Retail Moto G 16GB OTA upgraded to Kitkat then rooted with Xposed and GravityBox installed.
When I am listening to music in the background, Play Music will occasionally just stop without any indication of an error. This seems to happen when, for example, I click on a web link in Facebook, which leads me to suspect that the task manager is shutting it down due to low memory. Has anyone else seen this behaviour, and is there any known fix?
You are not the only one. I had exactly the same issue. Music player (Poweramp) sometimes closed while i was using Chrome. I added it as an exception in my Task Killer and i think it helped a bit.
I experience similar issue but differently in my case when unlock screen while music is on music stops. I have to manually play again.
May be KK related issue.

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.
Does anyone had any problem with their motorola xoom music player? Mine had been acting up recently, regardless if I am using stock apps or downloaded apps, or youtube, the music player will automatically pops up and played the tracks like I opened it. Even when I force close it, it will later pop back up again.
Anyone had similar problems?
I personally haven't.
Hi,
I'm having a strange issue with the Mi4C and the latest stable V7.0.15.0.LXKCNCI (MIUI7).
On my way to work I listen to music and MIUI seems to be overwhelmed with this mighty task.
With default settings, Poweramp cannot even play a single Mp3 without skipping/crackling noises about every 30seconds.
While this alone is annoying enough, the music playback just stops after about 30-40 minutes. The player still displays as if it were playing, but no sound comes out..
I've tried
- allow Poweramp to Autostart and keep background processes using the MIUI settings
- setting higher priority and buffering for playback directly in Poweramp
The latter seems to resolve the skipping part, but the sudden stops are still there.
I found several threads with similar but not identical problems, the most prominent being

Can anyone confirm this behavior?
Any workarounds?
Thanks
Jochen
I fixed it locking my music player in memory.. i just swiped down the app in multitasking (i'm on xiaomi.eu multilang rom)
yes, i can confirm on mokee, but not always. dunno why
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6. Ever since I got this phone, during media playback occasionally it will stop playback. It doesn't matter what type of media or on what app -- Pandora, Play Music, Youtube, everything else -- it stops sometimes. It seems to me like it could be a RAM issue, but even when there are no apps running other than the media player it still stops, so I can't imagine it'd be running out of memory. It happens whether the screen is on or off. It happens whether power saving mode (which restricts background data) is on or off. Any suggestions to remedy the problem? Many thanks.

Have you tried the usual? Wipe cache and dalvik if you have rooted, outside of that a full firmware flash.
Greetings all!
I'm having a strange phenomenon when listening to music on my Pixel from Google Play Music (untested in other apps as I have all-access)... my music will randomly stop/pause. The app and persistent notification show the icon as if it's still playing (not paused or stopped) but there is no sound, seconds do not advance, never gets to the next song, etc. It's worth noting perhaps that this seems to happen towards the end of a song, for instance when there's maybe 20-30 seconds of the song left. I feel like it has something to do with whenever it might start to preload or buffer the next song in queue??
After I give the app a fresh restart it seems to work fine for a while.. anywhere from 15 minutes to hours. There seems to be no pattern that I can tell. The only other thing I'm thinking is that maybe an app I'm using is for some reason causing a glitch but I really only use like Facebook, Gmail, texting, calling, and a time clock app. I've never had problems until I got the pixel so it definitely seems somewhat device-specific.
It does this when listening to music thru BT or with headphones plugged in.
The quickest way I can fix this is to manually press Pause in Play Music persistent​ notification, and then swipe it away, press the Square and Clear All. With headphones I can just re-open Play Music and press play.. on BT I have to cycle BT off/on (I think, I actually don't think I've ever tried it without cycling BT), then re-open Play Music... Sometimes it will automatically continue where it left off when I re-open the app, other times I have to manually press play again. You can imagine this being quite annoying and potentially dangerous as it usually happens when I'm using BT in my car while driving.
I've tried clearing the cache, clearing data, and even a full wipe. I'm using Pure Nexus ROM currently, but had the same problem when trying Resurrection Remix. I have literally never used the stock OS, I rooted it the day I got it and installed unofficial Lineage... I don't recall having this problem in LOS but I only used it for a few days before trying PN, RR, and then back to PN.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Or does anyone have some potential ideas to fix the problem?
Mine does the same thing the fix for me is not use Google play music. Play music has done this no matter what ROM I was on
