I have Tmobile USA Sensation 4G with Equalizer app isntalled to boost the audio quality.
When I play music, everything goes smoothly as long as the phone display is on.
Once the screen goes blank, the sound quality just all of sudden drops back to like when there is no Equalizer app installed.
But the funny thing is after I wait like 2 minute or so (with the screen still blank), the sound quality will come back good again.
The sound quality will also come back when I unlock the screen.
Does anybody know what's causing this glitch? and if yes, what's the solution.
Oh btw, I never root the phone. Everything is just as like when I got it the first time.
Thank you for the help in advance.
Do you have advanced task manager installed? If so, is it set to turn off programs at screen off? I suspect it is and you need to add the equalizer app to the ignore list.

Thanks, fastbeemer.
I don't use Advanced task Manager but Automatic Task Killer and they work pretty much the same.
After I checked the kill list and uncheck the equalizer, the problem disappear.
But the funny thing is I can't replicate the problem. Which means I tried to put equalizer on the kill list again but it's not turned off even after screen lock.
Well, anyway that's a good thing for me
Thanks again for the help.
Every time i play music all my sounds us turning off (including system sounds)

solveed!! xposed framework was the cause of my prob..
Just got my nexus 5 yesterday and am loving it so far! Weird quirk with it is although I have enabled widgets in the Security Settings, the lock screen controls when I use Google Play Music don't appear on the lock screen. Sometimes it flashes for a second with the album art then disappears back to the regular clock. Is there some setting that I should check to make sure the music controls aren't being overridden? I have the lock screen set on slide to unlock, not sure what else I need to check. Any help would be appreciated Thanks!
Same problem, bump
Lockscreen music controls no longer show up for some reason. Tried playerpro, google music, and pandora.
Mine works correctly on slide lock. I was just admiring it earlier. Huge improvement
I have the same problem using mtv music app. It seems my nexus "forgets" it is playing music even while it's playing music in the background. Randomly the music controls in the notification bar disappears, and even with it the lockscreen controls. I think it is a kind of strange power saving bug in 4.4.. Maybe it is possible to raise the music players priority. Any ideas are appreciated
thanks and regards
Edit: tested a little bit and it seems this bug only comes while streaming via Bluetooth. Had it with my bt headset and while streaming music at the dvr.
Maybe you can confirm that you discovered the bug while streaming via bluetooth, too.
same problem here
Same issue here but not only for Bluetooth. My lockscreen is secured by a PIN because I encrypted my phone. Maybe this is the problem?!
Sup guys. @Awks
I came across the same bug on my Nexus 4, too.
Tried the following: wiped cache, wiped play music data, fiddled around with lockscreen security settings. No luck.
Then, managed to fix it.
I had this one app, called JAYS Headset Control, that allowed to assign functions to headset button clicks. I simply uninstalled that **** and now s'all good.
So beautiful lockscreen with album art & all: https://db.tt/HfD6m3ds
Too bad I now have to re-download my 3GB music library, d'oh.
So if you have any similar apps, be aware that they might cause trouble. Ditch them.
Cheers! Hope this helps.

Hello everyone I'm facing problems with viper4android. The app just shuts down on its own after I close the music app(when no music is playing) or when I unplug my earphones. I am using only compatible mode as the normal mode doesn't work and just shows Enabled:NO, Processing: NO. It worked with apps like youtube too but once viper stops, I can't find a way to get it working again
I'm using the blackplayer music app and yes viper is a system app
Please help
Hi all.
I have an issue when I record a video with the default app on my Moto Z2 Play. I tried every mode, and on all no have audio. If I record audio with a recording audio app from Play Store, it works.
My phone is rooted and have the stock Oreo version (8.0.0). Also I installed Viper4Arise (Numbers 3.5). I not know if this caused the problem.
Regards.
Confirmed!
Viper4Arise was the problem. I restored a previous version of system image by TWRP Recovery and the problem solves. I installed Viper4Android FX Materialized v1.1 (2.6.0.5) using Magisk Manager and it works. Driver installed, audio prossesing: yes, and video recording with audio using default app.
Regards.
Now I updated to the last version (1.8.1) using downloads section of Magisk and works better with my V2A profiles.
But sometimes after reboot, V4A keeps with no processing. Probably I need to wait for finish the reboot completly before connect my headphones. I need to investigate it, jeje.
Regards.
Well, for some reason, in PowerAMP, the Direct Volume Control feature was enabled, I remember that I disabled it, but, well... Apparently now works normally, I will test it for some days.
Regards.
After few days, all it's OK.
Solved.
Regards.
