App to play music from AUX input? - Android Apps and Games

Is there an app, music player or otherwise, than can play from another device plugged into the 3.5mm socket?
BACKGROUND: Have an Android head unit in my car with an AUX in port. Want to plug my phone into this and play via the stereo. The AUX control app preinstalled is terrible hence the need for something else.

Using streaming music app on car stereo

I have a KENWOOD DDX512 model and I use the USB drive to listen to all my music. I connected MyTouch to the car stereo USB port to see if I can listen to PANDORA or the likes. Doesn't work. I can see some of my files on there and I keep hearing the NAVI voice from Google Maps and then it goes to the next file like FACEBOOK notification tone etc... It keeps repeating...
I was wondering if there's anyway we can connect the streaming app on to the car stereo? Maybe someone can create an app for that if there isn't one created yet?

pandora works fine like this on my incite going into a patch cable .
How did you get it to work?
You need to use a 3.5mm audio input on your stereo for things like that, I don't think that it will support USB audio for all apps. Your Mp3s, and certain other functions may work, but for 3rd party streaming apps, you'll be needing the 3.5mm jack (headphone jack)

[Q] Redirect audio from headphone jack to USB?

Is there a method for redirecting audio from a streaming music player (Spotify, IheartRadio, etc.) to play through the USB port instead of the headphone jack on the HTC One S? I primarily play music through my car stereo and would prefer to use the USB connection instead of the AUX port since I would be able to charge my phone while listening using only 1 cable. This method works fine if I want to mount the SD card and listen to the music stored on my phone but I don't believe it works for streaming audio.
There was an app called SoundRedirector that was built for the Samsung Galaxy S that did this when it was docked in the OEM car mount.
Thanks

USB audio

Hey I heard with lollipop we would have USB audio. When I connect my nexus 5 to my car through a USB cable and play some music it doesn't play from the car speakers. Whereas an iPhone was able to play music. Any help on how to make it work would be appreciated.
Probably your car audio needs a software upgrade to work with Android devices/L's USB DAC support.
Your car is looking for a file system, android USB audio is providing stream not a file system so this probably wont work unless the deck can emulate a small sound card or something to accept the input.

Multiple earphones

Hello, I bought z:ero digital earphones which connect with the micro-USB port to my phone. I tried to connect at the same time my conventional earphones from 3.5mm jack in order to have two sets of earphones playing music. The problem is that as soon as I connected the standard earphones the USB ones stopped playing music.
Is there any way to force both sets play music together?

Usb audio out while jack connected

Hi Guys!
Is it possible to play audio via usb while a headphone jack is connected ?
I'm planning on replacing my car stereo with a tablet and play music via usb with dac and amps.
This setup will render my steering wheel buttons useless but I'm thinking of moding some smartphone headphones with volume +/-and play/pause/skip capabilities to somehow control the tablet player from the steering wheel.
Can it be done ?
Thanks in anticipation!
