I have an 8525 and an A2DP equipped head unit in my car. I love being able to just jump in the car and go, BUT I have to manually hit play/pause on the stereo to control if its playing on startup. If I don't when I get out of the car the thing just keeps on playing over the speaker in the phone.
I did some searching and could not find any results. Is there a plugin or program that does this?

Nope, you always got to play or pause it. Otherwise it just keep playing through the internal speaker
I have a Venturi and with Mortplayer running in the backgroudn when I connect it plays automatically although it doesn't pause or stop...
is that something you can set up in mortplayer? cuz i tried mortplayer and I never saw an option like that
Yes. I've used the search but I couldn't find any util.
What I want is a program/util/hack that change soundprofile in WM6.1 (Xperia).
When I plug in my wired headset, I want NO sound at all on the phone. Everything should go trough my headset at my specified volume.
Then when I unplug my headset, everything goes back to the phone at loud volume.
And yes... automatically...
CAN SOMEONE please help me, beloved XDA-Developer....
setting a specified volume profile is something i'm not familiar with
but if you want to direct all sounds to your headset you can use
btmusic.
you can search google for upcoming beta/final releases

PhoneAlarm will do that very nicely for you. It provides lots of options for profile switching, one being a headphones being plugged in...

Hello,
I think this question has been talked about in another threads/forums.
but I can't find any thread that matches my problem.
To my problem:
When I listen to spotify(using bluetooth headset Sony SBH50) and receive a notification or use TTS, the bluetooth sound get maxed out.
I can't lower the sound until the notification//TTS sound is finished.
It started after last update of spotify
TS done:
Tested another headset (MW600) and I get the same problem, just it has it's own sound settings so I don't get deaf.
If I don't use BT headset I see that the sound get bumped up abit too but not maxed.
Inactivated tasker, same problem.
I have resettet the SBH50 headset and updated firmware.
Tested a mp3 file in xiialive and total commander(music player).
The music get a bit muted during the notification and then back to the same volume level. So sound is not maxed.
Tested Audible and it has a pause function on notification but no maxed out volume.
Solution / workaround
Solution: ? or to get Spotify fix the problem if it's a bug in the app.
Workaround: Was to change settings files to hard set the max BT volume to 50% of what is max today. If it can be done.
System:
Nexus 5
Android 4.4.2
Factory ROM
Rooted
Uses Tasker, don't have any sound alterations tasks.
Used xposed and GravityBox but exposed is deactivated.
TIA
Daniel
---------------------------------
Only good side, is that this forces me to listens to some books I have put on hold for a year.
Note: I have dyslexia so if there is anything you don't understand just ask...
Same problem. Extremely annoying. Imagine the situation, casually using bluetooth earphones while shopping, running, commuting & whatnot. And suddenly the music volume maxes out because a notification eg. for a hangout msg or sms goes off. Any ideas how to cure? Re-route bt audio?
Here's something to try:
with the BT headset connected, go to Settings -> Sound -> Volumes and change the notification volume there (again, WITH headset connected)
This should then set the notification volume for the BT headset without changing the media volume.
I use a BT headset all the time with A2DP (LG Tone+) and have never had this problem because I set the individual volume levels as force of habit the first time I connected to N5...
Hope it helps

Hi, tried that but it didn't help.
I have read that ppl have talked about a BT bug, but I have looked into it.

New version of Spotify today. Let see if it's fixed.

Anybody have a solution to this? I've tried u sing media volume sync and it helps a little bit but the S8 has much lower volume on Bluetooth overall than any other pho me I've used in recent memory. Doesn't matter if I'm using my headset or in the car.
Do you have the volume on the phone turned up??
I've noticed some anomalies around bluetooth audio volume as well. For instance, I can be running Waze and Pandora on my car or though my headset on my motorcycle. Volume settings are maxed out on the phone, with the final master volume being either my headset dial on the bike, or head unit volume control in the car. Pandora never seems to be at quite full volume and just after Waze finished speaking a notification, Pandora volume will increase for a fraction on a second and then be reduced again. It's like there is some type of limiting going on and I've disabled all limit settings that I can find.
This is not just related to Pandora, but other streaming apps as well. And without Waze running, I don't notice increased volume in the streaming apps. Waze just seems to somehow enable the short period of increased volume.
Let's see if we can solve this once and for all. I've been experimenting and I am having some results. But does require an equalizer app. I am using Equalizer FX so I don't know how these steps work on other ones.
Open the app, click the three dots in the upper right > Settings > check "Global audio output mix" it's description reads, "Warning! It does not work for new devices. We do not recommend to use this feature. However this is the only solution for some players." (I am using YT Music)
After you turn that setting on, go back and click the middle tab "Effects" and you'll need to turn on "Loudness Enhancer" then use the slider to adjust it to your personal taste.
You don't even need to have the main page equalizer turned on. Just the main toggle needs to be on, the one right next to the three dots.
This part is just a little extra for those who don't understand the issue. SoundAlive maintains the media volume separately from all other device sounds. In the past we just used Package Disabler, turned it off, boom no more limited bluetooth music volume. Now it seems, it cannot be disabled with going rooted. *Flips table* You can easily demonstrate the issue by making sure you have setting on for the device volume synced with bluetooth volume. Connect to a bluetooth speaker, play a song, then plug and unplug an aux cable into the phone, you'll notice probably a 30% volume difference.

I've noticed the same thing running Waze, it's like something is limiting the output.
FWIW, I've also noticed the same behavior when the phone is connected to my car stereo. I'll have to pay attention to whether it occurs with other devices. I suspect the behavior will be the same. I can pause any playing music and then un-pause it and the music will start at full volume before the volume seems to get limited. I don't have another Android phone that I can try this with and I've never noticed such behavior with either Windows Phone or iPhone.

I can tell you my past Android phones didn't do this.. The last two were a Droid Turbo 2 and an LG G2.

I do usually have DriveMode (and sometimes Waze) running although I've run experiments without it with the same results. There just seems to be some sort of limiter being applied.
S8+ Low Bluetooth Volume

I've got the same problem with my S8+. Samsung support simply say try resetting the phone, but as the problem was there from new, what difference is that going to make! It seems to be a fundamental issue with this particular model (8 & 8+), as my iPhone7 and my older Note4 don't have the problem.
Same here. I use V4Android, as it's mixed into the CarHDROM v9, works excellently to overcome the system low vole on my 8+
I m not sure if a solution... But I tried disabling Bluetooth Media Volume Sync ( Settings - Bluetooth - Options (3 dots on the top right) - Media Volume Sync - (Turn off) )..
This gives phone media its own volume and the bluetooth device to control its own volume.
The volume is better after this for me.

I'm having the same issue, but I don't have the option for Media Volume Sync as apparently my car's stereo doesn't support that function. Any other ideas on how to get this fixed?

you might be misunderstanding the original poster. I have the s8+ and I did what he was talking about on the phone. On your s8+, you go to system settings -> Connections -> Bluetooth then if you tap on 3 dot top right menu, you will see 3 choices: Dual audio, Media Volume Sync, Bluetooth control history. If you tap on the media volume sync, it will be on but blacked out so that you can't turn it off, so what I did was in that menu select dual audio and turn that on. It will say it has to shut off media volume sync yes/no - select yes and media volume sync will now be off. Then just turn back off the dual audio and media volume sync will still be off.
Sorry that was long, hope it helps.
Fixed!

Thanks! This pointed me in the right direction, although my solution was just the opposite. Turning this on solved my problem. Just a week ago my S8+ had no issues with Bluetooth volume. But I sent it for repairs and they updated the software. After that, the max volume on my earbuds were a whisper. Turning Bluetooth media volume sync on brought it back to previous pre-repair levels. Maybe it works in my case because the earbuds don't have any volume control. I don't recall ever touching this setting previously though.
I also had surround sound on , turned that off and it helped. Sorry if I missed this somewhere earlier in the post.

Grad it helped. However, it seems that i am also back to square 1 after some recent update... Bluetooth audio is just whisper to me now... Specially for videos (be it a video on ur phone or youtube, etc). This is happening to me with a Samsung s8 and a Samsung Level U !!! Reported this to Samsung. Lets c what response i get for it.
Go to settings /general management/ reset/network reset. After this I had to re enter Wi-Fi password but it fixed it. Not my fix found it on YouTube but it works.
Hello friends. I have mtcd px3 dasaita multimedia and android 7.1.2 version. I use agama car launcher. I use it with the poweramp program. The problem is. poweramp does not turn off when you make any phone calls. I turn off the sound from the focus, but again the poweramp does not turn off. I would be glad if you could help for the solution.
I know that's a bummer. For some reason Poweramp does not identify the call and keeps playing in the background. What I have done to go around that is that I have assigned on MTCD tools while pressing the answer call button to pause Poweramp and when pressing the hang up button to play Poweramp. It's not the cleanest solution, however it is a way I hope this helps.
