Question [CLOSED]Pixel 6a Popping Sound via External Audio - Google Pixel 6a

I have a GX7AS on A13. I frequently use this phone for music. However, I have been getting frequent random popping sounds with the audio via WiFi streaming, BT, and wired audio, which is the worst case (more frequent).
The popping sound goes with the audio. Meaning, if there's silence in the song I'm listening to or in a video I'm watching on YouTube, I never hear the annoying popping sound. I hear it with my IEMs and when I am connected to my studio monitor speakers. I tried RCA and 3.5, same problem.
Is there something I could do or, at least, try to eliminate this popping noise?

As per OP's request, thread has been closed.
For those interested, it was a dongle issue.

A2DP Headset problem

I have a Sony Ericsson A2DP Headset. It connects fine for both calls and for listening to music. There is however one small annoying issue.
If I'm listening to music (generally I have to have the volume up quite high) and a phonecall comes in and I take the call; something weird happens when the call ends.
The bluetooth connection is dropped and basically everyone in the vicinity gets and earful of whatever music I was playing before the call. This can be pretty bad if I'm sitting at one of our quiet, open plan offices. If I press the play buttin on my headset it reconnects and audio comes in over the headset again but it's not good to have to do this after every call.
Anyone else had this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Whenever I encounter a quirky bluetooth problem, deleting the pair relationship and repairing sometimes helps.
Works fine for me... Could be headset specific, as I use Motorola S9's and Plantronics 855's without the issue you're having.
It does it for me too. After the phone call the music is played through the phone's speaker for just a couple of seconds, then gets transferred to the headset in mono for a couple of seconds before reverting back to normal.
I can see this would be annoying if you were in a quiet place.
Sony Headset
and me, funnily enough I have a Samsung MP3 player and the headset works perectly with that - good old HTC

[Q] Bluetooth audio streaming issue with Big Jambox

I have had the S4 for about 4 days now and I use my Big Jambox to stream Pandora music to. I noticed that when I get an alert for anything whether email, text etc...it pauses Pandora (as it should) but will not continue playing and I have to disconnect and reconnect to my Jambox to get it to play through the speaker again. I have used this same speaker with about 10 other phones and this is the first time I have seen this.
Any thoughts?

Help with Bluetooth (media streaming vs. in call audio)

I use a USB bluetooth dongle with a 3.5 mm headphone jack in my car in order to stream music from my phone. I plug the dongle into the lighter outlet for power and then connect the dongle to the aux jack in the car's stereo. Everything works great when playing any media. However, it won't connect for call audio. If I were to dial a phone number, the sound from the key touches play through the radio, but as soon as the call connects the audio plays through the phone's earpiece. I am not able to get the in call audio to stream through my bluetooth. When I go to the bluetooth settings, I see an option for media audio and nothing for in call audio. If anyone can help me get this fixed, that would be great. Also, I am on CM 10 RC 1, but this did the exact same thing on stock touchwiz.
Bump
I have the same issue on stock. This thread isn't the same as what you're asking, but he does state that he is trying to find a workaround to the same issue.

Thanks for the reply. However, my issue is that once a call connects, the audio goes through the phone's earpiece. I can only stream media (youtube, Pandora, music, etc.) through Bluetooth, but calls won't connect to my Bluetooth setup at all.
I really hope someone has a solution to this.

Bluetooth Audio

How is the Bluetooth audio quality on the S6? I use many wireless headphones and speakers so this is an important factor for me. Is it true that the Bluetooth audio randomly stops sometimes?
Mine randomly starts to skip and pop after some time playing. Turning the BT off/on fixes it for a while.
The problem is worse when paired with my Bēm speaker, rare when paired with my JBL speaker, and nonexistent when paired with my Sony soundbar.
All of these speakers work fine with my other devices.
I only use bluetooth with my truck's stock stereo, but this is the first Android device I've had paired with it that doesn't skip over BT. I've used it with S6, Note 3, Note 4, S5 Active, S4 Active and iPhone 6+. iP6+ was the only other one that didn't skip.
S5 Active and Note 3 also skip with a Jensen BT Nav headunit in a different vehicle.
An update to my previous comment..
I went for an hour-long drive and experienced no skipping or popping while paired to my car's stereo.
It seems the issues are only with specific Bluetooth receivers/speakers.
I can get on-board with this. I have a few different bluetooth devices, all of which have no trouble, ever, but then sometimes (and ONLY sometimes) my BT headphones will skip and stutter to the point that I just turn them off. The other devices work fine 100% of the time.
I'm at my wit's end with the bluetooth on this device. It skips and stutters more times than not. It's embarrassing when friends are over and we're trying to have some background music playing.

No BT problems here. Maybe you have a defective phone. Take it back to the store and try to exchange it. There is no excuse for crappy BT on a $700+ device.
My wife has an S6 also, with the same issues.
I have FINALLY noticed an issue with the BT on my phone. When connected to my truck and listening to music, I go to a call (incoming or outgoing doesn't matter), when the call ends and goes back to the music, the volume "flutters". It goes low/high/low/high alternating twice a second. It's a very slight change, but it's enough to notice that it sounds "weird".
Exiting and restarting PowerAMP, or switching to a different input then back to the BT audio stream will fix it, so I haven't figured out if it's the phone or my truck.

MotoG keeps switching between Headset and Speakers

Hello, my name is Zineron, more known as Zinnye. I just fixed a MotoG for me, it works normally, except the audio. The phone keeps Switching between Wired Headset and Speakers, I only noticed that after i went to watch some videos at youtube, and the sound kept failing, because of that bug. The thing is: I can still watch videos, listen to music, play games, but only when the headset is connected. If the Headset is not connected, it keeps switching between Speakers and Wired Headset.
I've been searching around the internet a while, and i found a lot of people with the same problem, but with them, the bug only happens when the headset is connected, so they couldn't help me.
My phone is a MotoG, running android 5.0.2(Lollipop), and it's not rooted or anything.
