I did several searches, but was unable to find an answer to this. I hope one of you can enlighten me
I recently installed the "Listen" app to listen to podcasts. When i plug in the stock headphones that come with the Captivate and then click the mic button on it, it will bring up & control the media player playback instead of Listen. Is there a way to configure the behavior of this button? Is there a way to keep it from bringing up the Media Player app and instead control the Listen app?
Thanks!
I've been having the same issue. I installed winamp, but I get the same thing.
I installed doubleTwist, and it looks like it properly takes over button so that the stock music player app is no longer launched. Does this mean Listen is not doing it right?

i am having problems with my stock headsets
the control buttons dont work at all.
i cant pause/unpause or change track while listening to music
i cant pick up or hang up a call either.
anyone facing the same issues?
any fixes?
Could be two things.
Do you use a task killer? Make sure you're not killing the required service or app.
If you have installed other music players they may have taken over the controls, to overcome this you can reinstall the stock music app or w/e your using.

i've had pandora, but issues still apply to pandora as well
i've wiped and tried the headset with the music player right after before installing any other apps, and still i have the same issues
Uninstall any media player app you have installed, it could be interfering with headset clicks.
Use default media player and enable headset controls in configuration.
Put the default media player widget on any of the main screens.
If it doesn't work yet. Try installing DroidShuffle and check again.
there's also an app on the market called fix headset controls or restore music controls.. something like that which restores the head phone buttons to original.
Is there a way to disable headset controls in the version of Music Mod that's currently incorporated into CM6.1-RC1?
Music Mod is cool and all, but I prefer PowerAMP and Music Mod sometimes intercepts headset controls when I actually want to start PowerAMP.
I've looked high and low through system settings and CyanogenMod settings, and can't seem to find a settings menu within Music Mod itself. Is there a simple solution that I'm overlooking?
do you mean like if you use the controls on the headset instead of controlling your current app triggers the default music player installed as stock on the android (not sure if Music Mod is stock... i just know it as Music)? because i have the same problem! ill be using pandora and the pause/play triggers either Music.apk or Winamp and its really annoying.
Yeah dude, that sounds like exactly the problem I'm having! Here's hoping the XDA brain trust can help us out :]
I have the same issue while using Pandora! Hope there's a fix?
Not that it helps this specific problem, but go to now playing, then menu>more>settings for settings.
I can't seem to figure out how to control music playing on my phone from my watch (using Google Music phone app). Is something supposed to pop up when I play music on my phone? I don't see an "app" on the watch that controls this. Note that I'm using a Note 3.
What am I missing?

You get card of current song and if u swipe to left u can advance and swipe to right one more time to stop I believe.

Actually I figured this out. You have to start the playback on the phone first. Then you get a notification that let's you pause / play, Swipe to the left and you next and once more to the left you get previous, but that is the extent of the stock music control. This worked with EVERY music player I have, not just Google stock Music player.
You can also control volume if you get the Wear Volume app - it appears as an additional notification card under the main music notification. And here is also something that is WAY cool - if you download musiXmatch app, you can scroll down and choose to display scrolling LYRICS to the current song!! I can't get BOTH volume AND lyrics to work at the same time however. Note the Volume works with any music app you choose in it's settings. However, musiXmatch only works with Google Play Music player.
There are also some voice controls to start playback. Such as OK Google, play me some music (that will start an "I'm feeling lucky" shuffle). OK Google, Play Some *artist name* . there are some others, but I use those two often.
Not sure if it matters, but this is on an HTC One M7, stock 4.4.2 Sense 6, Google Play Music.
I've just finished developing my Wear Music Controller app to solve this problem for me:

You can play/pause/next/prev/stop/vol-up/vol-down from your watch! Works with all music apps. Let me know what you think!
Hello !
I flashed my head unit with a recent malaysk rom (update_4_4_4_FUSE_1024X600_RK3188_16_MAL_17_03_2016) and I just discovered jetAudio which suits me as player for different reasons (prev/next SWC don't work in that app and the EQ enhances the sound like the standard EQ doesn't).
But it doesn't behave like the standard "Music" app :
- When starting up the car it doesn't resume playing automatically
- When switching to radio it doesn't automatically pause but instead lowers its volume and you can still hear your music in the background of the radio
How do I get jetAudio to behave like the "Music" would if I used it ?

I think standard music app is controlled by the MCU (If i remember rightly)
So it knows to stop playing when losing focus.
Most other music apps dont work in the same fashion as generally you want to minimize the app and keep playing.
I use JetAudio and have gotten used to the idea of pausing music before exiting and likewise pressing play on start up.
If someone can get around this with Tasker or something i'd love to know too

Has anybody a solution for this issue? "....When starting up the car it doesn't resume playing automatically"
RocketPlayer seems to do this just fine on my headunit.
Hi,
I have set google play music as my default music player. But when I plug in headphones and hit the button on the remote control the huawei music player starts. Also when I start playing with google player manually, first time I want to pause or skip via remote control the huawei player jumps in. When I then close the huawei player, everything works fine. Is there any fix for that?
Also sometimes when pressing play on the player I don't hear sound as somehow the media volume got muted (without me doing that). Does anyone else have this issue? I'm on EVA-L09C432B170. But had this issues already for some time...
thanks
