I can't seem to shake this issue despite trying a few different ROMs, though I didn't have this on stock, so I'm hoping someone can venture a guess as to what the source of the problem is. I haven't found any solutions through exhaustive searching, and I don't even see anyone with a similar problem.
Whenever the headset is plugged in, I get music and video files playing through the headset just fine, but as soon as I press the Google Search button (to go to Google Search, with the option for voice search and all) whatever sound was playing goes straight out the speaker until I close it or actually complete a search, sending to the browser. I've had this happen a few times in public, loudly disrupting everyone around me.
I'm using CM 11, 0224 nightly
I've disabled voice playback on the search app, but to no avail.
Does anyone have any idea how to correct this?
(Oh, and if someone can inform me how I can get my ringtone to go through my headset instead of speakers, or if I can't, which ROM can let me do that, that would be super great)

Hi! I'm sorry if this is posted, but I've searched and found nothing on this issue.
My question is about the standard handsfree headset wich comes in the original package. My issue is that I don't use the button for calling people, but I would rather use it for... Changing songs or muting the sound. Something else... Is there a way to do this?
bump?
cause im calling people without even knowing, just listening to music..
I don’t think it is because it’s just for pick-up and to call the last called number or for voiced programmed numbers
still have the same problem...even while listening to music it starts a call.
does there anybody have a solution to disable this button?
Don't press it!
How hard is it to press? I don't know what you are doing to press it but I don't have this problem.
If you just want to listen to music then get a usb to audio out jack off ebay and plug in a nice set of headphones.
why should I buy a audio-adapter if there might is a software solution?
but we don't need to push the button as hard as the buttons on the diamond...it is much softer!
Hi,
YES there is a software solution. I was looking for it for one year, but then I found PlayPause:

Basically, you use the button to pause/play (double "click") and NEXT (long press) while the normal one click answers a call is untouched.
I am using it with COreplayer and it is excellent. Have to try several versions of PlayPause though.
Another solution is Microsoft VoiceCommand but more complicated.
Hope that helps!
cheers

This is what i did as a solution:
I grabbed the thing you have to push and kinda pulled it out. Then its broken, but you can still listen music without calling people.
i am hoping to find other people to see if they can reproduce what i am seeing. when i am listening to music and using navigation, in 1.3 i could not turn on the audio focus option in PowerAmp because it would turn down the volume on both the nav voice and the music so the voice became inaudible. now, in 1.4, Max has introduced cross-fading and fade ins and outs, but it has made things worse on at least my phone because the fades again fade out the nav voice.
i just have the one phone on CM7 and no way to check other phones myself, so i was hoping some people could try it out on their CM7 phones to see what happens, or maybe give me a hint as to what settings to change and where. seems like i've tried all the audio focus settings on the CM end as well as in PowerAmp to no avail.
thanks.
Hi. I have the inspire. Its rooted and has the new 2.3.3 rom. My problem is that when i try to listen to music it skips, changes songs, opens voice dialer and then on one instance it called someone. I reinstalled the rom, restarted the phone, but it still persists. I have an idea it might have something to do with the headphones being inserted. When it was doing this i took out the headphones and plugged them back in and it played music just fine for a few minutes. any ideas?
EDIT
I just noticed right now that the icon changes from headset to headphones. Right now im listening to it and it playing just fine as long as the icon is set to headphone.
Edit 2:
Well i found this "Hey. I'm dealing with an annoying behavior, and I'm not sure if it's by design, or if there's something wrong with my phone.
When I plug in headphones... everything goes wonky. Specifically, the phone seems to take feedback from any pressure (usually accidental) I apply to the headphone cable. If I push it one way, it goes into voice command mode. If I push it another, it redials the last call I made. And other such along these lines. Why is it doing this? Is it by design, or is there something wrong with my device? How do I make it stop? Every time I jostle the phone while trying to listen to music, I have the phone annoying redialing my last call, going to voice mode, or otherwise interrupting what I'm doing.
I got the feeling, from one of the apps I was playing with, that this may be something called "headset commands," but I haven't been able to find anything else about that. "
Its a diffrent phone but same issue. I tried wiggling my headphone jack around a bit and found that the icon changed to headset. So ill leave this thread here for anyone having the same issues, as i couldnt find anything for this issue with the inspire forum.
I had the same problem on CM7, turns out the phone was recognizing my headphones as a bluetooth headset with built in controls, and it was confused thinking it was getting signals to skip around and change songs. I fixed it by installing a widget called Headset Blocker from the Android market, once I enable it everything works well.
Thanks! now my world is ok.
Hi all, I have been having a problem with the voice guidance since the update to Maps 6.8.0. I am on Android 2.3.4 on the latest baseband. In the past, voice guidance was fine, even when playing music. When my music was playing, the song would lower, but not stop, and the navigation direction would clearly sound over the song, then the song would be back to normal volume. Now, when the direction guidance is supposed to turn on, the song lowers, but no voice guidance. I also get no voice guidance with music off. I get no guidance with and without the headphone jack plugged into my car system. I understand that navigation volume and media volume are now linked, but media volume is turned all the way up, and still no voice guidance.
When I go to check the Pico TTS settings, I click on Listen to an Example and get the sample voice and when I go to Google Translate, I also get a voice.
Anybody else have this problem or have an idea how to fix?
Thanks

I had the same problem. Only it stops working again after a while.
Navigation for the G2x? Didnt no that was possible lol. 9 times outa 10 i need to use my garmin because the gps is so terrible on this thing. Which is sad because the G1 and mytouch slide i had before this could use navigation no problem, cant wait for a decent qwerty to come out again.
I know Pixel 2 bluetooth problems have been discussed here and elsewhere ad nauseam, but I honestly haven't found anyone else experiencing the problem I'm having. Or really even close. None of this was an issue with my Nexus 6P, which I just replaced.
First problem: Audio programs mute between tracks. The phone thinks it's playing them, but it isn't. Take Pandora. A few songs will play fine, then one will end, and suddenly it'll go mute when the next song starts. I'll notice no sounds playing, and I'll look down to see it think it's playing, but with no sound. If I pause and hit play again, the sounds start up until the next song, when it does the same thing. This happens with every audio program I've tried EXCEPT Google Play Music, which works fine. It also sometimes works for 4-5 songs before tanking.
Second problem: notification noises suffer the same fate. I'll have Google Play Music going (which works), and it'll just cut out for a second). That's the notification buzz, which silences the music but doesn't actually play anything. Obviously I can't use the play/pause test to see if that fixes this.
I'm using Soundpeats Q16 true wireless. I unfortunately don't have much else with which to test this. I'd blame Soundpeats, but they worked great on my 6P, and the bluetooth problems with the P2 make me think it's not on Soundpeats here.
I've messed around with the Developer options, and I THINK that setting the Playback Quality to anything steady (330kbps, 660kpbs, or 990 kbps) fixes it. The problem is that that, and the other Bluetooth developer options, all reset on me almost immediately, so that's tough to prove. I have also tried messing around with Tasker, whose sounds also wind up muted.
So one question I'd have would be: is there a way to make those developer options stick?
Second question would be: anybody else in this boat?
I have tried both re-pairing and factory resetting the headphones, several times.
