I have tried 3 different phones including my latest an LG G3. Whenever the phones connect to my Subaru radio, and the audio source is selected as bluetooth, the phone will automatically open the last audio app I had running (Podcast Addict, MixZing, etc.) and start playing where it left off. I have looked all over for options and so far only found one to "not resume playback after phone call." While this prevents any audio playing when I hang up, I don't want audio to start playing just because my phone connected to the car's bluetooth either.
How do I disable this?! Hoping I can do it form the phone end. Saw no way to do it from the car's radio.
No one?
N7player has a setting called "Resume after Plugin" under Headset controls. I think that's what you're looking for. (Since it sees a bluetooth radio as a headset).
I think i have this problem too.
I have BBC iPlayer app, and I tend to use it to listen to live radio, over wi-fi when I wake up in the morning. Then I close the app and usually swipe it away.
When I drive I often use Google Maps or Sygic app as a Sat Nav, and connect the phone to my car stereo via Bluetooth so the audio is routed through the car stereo. Often I also listen to music from Google Music (downloaded only), and that works well, with the music being muted automatically for voice instructions. But when I don't want to listen to music, and just have the voice through the radio it keeps starting up BBC iPlayer Radio which then uses up my data allowance. If I wanted to listen to the radio I would use the car radio. Having read this thread I guess it is starting BBC iPlayer because it is the last audio app that was being used.
I noticed today that even if I stop the app, and swipe it away, if RDS TA (FM Traffic Announcements) break into the audio, when they end or I cancel them, the BBC iPlayer app starts up again.
I don't want to be having to keep stopping it while I am driving. I hoped there was some way of stopping it.

Well the subject says it all.
I am looking for any media player that will resume from pause when my bluetooth audio profile connects.
the stock media player pauses when bluetooth disconnects (good). But when you get back in the car, and the bluetooth reconnects, you have to fiddle around with the phone to get the music going again (bad).
Radiotime doesn't pause when bluetooth disconnects, which is awful because you end up walking out of your car, then suddenly the phone speaker starts blasting whatever music you had playing, making you look like a complete douche.
PowerAmp and Music Mod are both great players, both pause on BT disconnect, but neither will resume on BT connnect.
Is this something that can be implemented globally somehow?
I used to have a Galaxy SII that was able to connect to my car stereo through bluetooth with no issue.
With the Tmobile One S, often time my phone does not full connect it will do things like only connect for phone use but not for listening to music. I also used to be able to control moving the songs and I can no longer do that. I also cannot get the metadata to show up on the car display.
Many times a reboot will hook the audio up and I can listen to music, but I still can only go forwards and backwards by using the phone.
Is anyone else having issues like this?
Yep, I got the same issues....A2DP sync problem.
Does it sync your phone contacts too. If so change what contacts are synced only allow google contacts. This was a solution for a similar issue in another thread.
Sent back in time to find Marty.
No, I don't sync my contacts...worked perfectly with MyTouch4G...also noticed headset droid and jays headset control take away Bluetooth control capability...anyone know a work around besides disabling?
Same issue here with my bluetooth headset (Cardo scala rider G4) and HTC One X.
Since installing Jays headset control for my Jays One+ (which is a one-button wired headset) my bluetooth headset control fails big time. I can only use my headset play functionality and after disconnecting the headset the music player starts playing music again within a couple of minutes.
I'll try to disable Jays headset control and let you know if this resolves my bluetooth problems.
how do/when do you select which contacts to send to headset? Didn't see an option for this in Bluetooth settings.
I received the Tmobile update today and I still have the issue of the phone not transmitting the metadata to my radio. Interestingly enough when I stream Pandora the data from pandora shows on my radio display.
Do any of you all know of a ROM that will allow the metadata to be sent from my phone to the radio?
This is the only thing that really annoys me about this phone. Thinking of selling it when the SIII comes out.
I've been having an issue with the media audio streaming to Bluetooth on the Blaze, which I did not have on my previous phone (Optimus). I pair with a Soundfly View in my car, and use the app BeyondPod to listed to podcasts. On a "fresh" Blaze, the audio will begin to play/stream for a split second, and then stop (though the podcast will continue to "play" or advance on the phone). I can occasionally get it to do it again by clicking play, but never for more than that split second.
Through experimenting, I noticed that phone audio seems to be fine, as well as audio on the Music player. What I've found, consistently, when this happens, if I start the Music player, start playing some audio then pause it, then go back to BeyondPod, it streams fine. At least for a time, though I've yet to figure out exactly what "resets" this workaround. But when I'm unable to play, I have to redo this Music player trick to play the podcasts.
Any clue what is going on here, and any permanent fix?
Bluetooth streaming... I have been doing this for a few years using a slightly different method that I'll share here in hopes it might help. I know this is kinda unrelated to your app, but this might be a fix.
Connect any bluetooth headset (I use my PS3 headset)
Download an app called BTmono (its free and a very simple interface, on/off)
Press the on button
Now any sound you would of heard out of your phone speaker you hear on your headset. This lets you listen to music, audio books, videos, or whatever on your headset. When you are tired of it, make sure to press the off button on BTmono to go back to normal. Hopefully this will help or at least provide a temp fix for now. My boss just thinks I like to wear mine all the time, he has no clue I am jamming dubstep and listening to audio books all night
Well, even should that work, it's really the same solution...using another app to force the streaming which should be happening automatically if you're connected with the right BT profile.
I did forget to mention that I do use A2DP volume, which launches an app (BeyondPod) and adjusts the volume when BT is connected. I also used it on my old phone, so I doubt it's related, but...
Nobody else has any problems with Bluetooth from other apps? It's just me???
Running Codename Android
I set up my phone to play through a Bluetooth stereo dock and at first BeyondPod wasn't playing through it but Google Play music was. BeyondPod Started playing through the speakerphone instead. When I realized Play Music was working I opened up Pandora and it also played through the Bluetooth.... until the first song ended and it switched over to the speaker phone. Oddly enough, BeyondPod then started playing through bluetooth. I rebooted the phone and now Pandora is permanently playing through speaker phone only. I downloaded and used BT mono, which caused Pandora to play through Bluetooth with a 15 second delay, but when I shut it off it played through Bluetooth perfectly! I rebooted my phone and it is back to speaker phone only. Now BT mono does not affect it at all.
Summary of what I have tried:
Two separate Bluetooth devices, same behavior
BT mono app, worked at first (crappily) but now has no effect.
Multiple reboots, cleared data and reinstalled Pandora, no effect.
Unchecked and recheck BT setting in Pandora, no effect.
The Bluetooth devices are set to "media" in the bluetooth setting, and one of them was set to "media" and "Phone"
Is this a ROM issue? I love this rom... Any other ideas? I don't think it is a problem with the bluetooth devices considering every other app works fine.
Ok so to add to the mystery, I just tried Double Twist, and it did exactly what pandora did. It played the first song through Bluetooth, and when it cycled to the next track it went to speaker phone. Now I can't get Double Twist back to Bluetooth.
IF anyone is following this, I have found that if I enable BT Mono, the sound stops playing from the speaker, and when I disable BT mono it start playing through Bluetooth.
So just a toggle on and off and it randomly works, sometimes it does nothing though. It's incredibly inconsistent.
Could this be a kernel issue?
Appears to be a general CM10 issue. Sorry.
Not sure what the issue is but I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with the same issues. I'm trying to find a fix but nobody knows what is going on. I saw on other forums someone referencing the AVRCP version with new builds. Not sure if this is it or not. But I have a 2011 Toyota Camry it will not pair with for Pandora, YouTube, etc... Google Music works but that's it. And I can replicate your issue. If music is playing, I can hear notifications but if it isn't I don't hear anything.
Not sure if this will work for you but it worked for my HTC One and 2011 Sienna:
Launch pandora
Launch Google Play Music
Under Manage apps, select Google Play Music and stop it.
Sometimes Pandora starts streaming at this point.
If not, select Pandora from Running and stop everything under it.
Restart Pandora and it should stream now.
I have had this problem ever since i got the Sensation and it doesn't matter what ROM i use, it's the same on every ROM. I have a samsung home surround sound system that i can connect to my phone through Bluetooth to enable me to play songs through the system. It works perfectly until the WIFI connection is being used on my phone. For example i could be streaming my music through BT and the WIFI is on, if the WIFI starts to be used for data like a Facebook notification or me opening my phones browser, then the song will start skipping and jumping. Normally it's not an issue but I've downloaded the Google Music App so that i can store all my songs online and that way i don't have to use my phone/cards storage space but as i want to play the music through my surround sound, i will have to be connected to both WIFI and BT.
Any suggestions why this does this?
