Very weird.
2.3.4 stock(ish), rooted, a2sd, 16gb class 2 card.
Doesn't matter which music app, some tracks get part way thru', and then skip to the next track.
Any ideas? Driving me mad!

it could be corrupted mp3s. It has happened to me before when copying music. Trying copying the songs to your computer and play them there
Does it only happen when you have headphones or a lead plugged in? If so, it could be that the plug is activating the headset controls and skipping, pausing and generally playing silly buggers.
There's a widget called "headset blocker" on the market that sorted the problem for me. It just turns off the headset controls.
If it's not that, I apologise for wasting your time...
Thanks to you both. I'll try both things.

Ok so at work I use my phone as my improved iPod. So lets say I pause the song that I was playing and shut the screen back off. My problem occurs when I unplug the headphones from the jack is that it all the sudden starts playing music again, and the phone doesn't register its playing. I have to quickly goto the music app hit play and pause again to get it to stop.
Anyone else have this?
CM 5.0.5.3
Also ran 5.0.5.1 experimental build
its because the headphone jack supports (4 pin i think) headsets that have the skip/play/pause buttons on them and the headphones you are using prolly are only the 2 pin ones without the extra buttons...
I've defintely reproduced this bug. Im not quite sure what i did that caused it but it was very weird, i had to go to the music app and press play and stop again. At first i brought down the notifications slider and i was like wtf. I am also on 5.0.5.3

Is there anyone that can confirm this? That would be pretty nifty.
Edit - nvm the headphones that come with the nexus have the control thing. Ill test this out to see if it still does the bug.

I also have this bug. Are you using MusicZing Lite? It happens to me all the time, and sometimes I have to restart the phone. It's very annoying.
BTW It happened to me using the stock headphones and my sony inline control headphones so yes I can confirm it happens to 4 pin connetions.
From what I understood though CM said its an app problem.

Nah, I'm just using the stock Music app. =/
On a side note - it happened to me at school last night, should have seen the look on everyones faces when my phone started blasting After the Burial. lol
It just did it to me right now. What i did exactly was i was going to listen to a song on my phone (im at work) with my headphones and so i plugged them in, but then i realized i can just stream it from somewhere on my work computer and so i unplugged them before i even opened the music app and it started playing my music. Hmmm this bug is starting to get annoying.
and my headphones are not 4 pin
Autostarts is available on the market - it should allow you to disable this feature/bug.
I believe it's 'Headset plugged or unplugged' - just disable the Music player and you should be good to go.
Cheers
If you're already happy with MixZing, ^3, or one of the other third party music apps, you could also just delete Music.apk; this also fixes the problem.
(Noted as following: playing music in any app via headphones, stop music, unplug headphones, music would start playing via the music app only; IE, despite not having used music app in that session, I'd have to open it, and play&pause to stop the music).
Problem is now gone, along with Music.apk.
I'm currently using the NFX ROM, which I generally like a lot. However, I do see the following behavior, which I believe is not specific to the ROM (which is why I'm posting here).
Do any of you find a lag in your Hero when you insert a headphone into your jack? My music app comes up, stalls for about 3 seconds, and is unresponsive. Then it seems to catch up and act normally. This is with the HTC music app, which otherwise works okay. Also, this doesn't happen all the time, about half the time I'd say. But it's really frustrating. The lag doesn't happen when the headset is not plugged in.
I use setcpu ,but i have it set to 480 to 710, so I don't think it's a CPU speed issue from setcpu.
Any ideas?
Clarify, when you plug your headphones in the music app automatically starts?
I use mine every morning when I walk to class. I plug in the headphones, open the music app, and start playing a random song. The music app isnt as fast or responsive as I would like but it doesn't lag bad enough to be an annoyance. I too am on nfx.
Maybe you could try using the other music player. The Android one, not the HTC. It's faster for me but doesn't have the lockscreen controls.

Hi,
The stock music player stops (actually pauses the music) randomly on my Samsung SGS, usually after around 30 mins of playback. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
I'm running 2.2.1 XXJPY on an unlocked 8GB SGS.
I certainly didnt have this issue. Are you using the headphones for listening to music?
Maybe, IMO, the headphones are loose and it is coming out. whenever you pluck out the headphones from the phone, the music pauses.
The headphones appear to be attached quite securely and most of my listening is done at work sitting at a desk. I'll try a different set of headphones though and see if they make a difference.

I am getting this as well even without headphones plugged in. Seems to be random - it can happen within 5 minutes, or it can play for hours without stopping.
This also happens to me, same with Power Amp, Music Mod, and the stock player. It just randomly stops playing every so often, it's very annoying.
I only listen through headphones and I have seen other threads that suggest it is something to do with the contact on the headphones but they are always securely fit in, and it happens on my brother's phone as well.
Most likely it has to do with the contacts.
Try to twiggle the plug a bit while listening to something. If music stops it's the plug.
I experience this issue with PowerAMP and the plug for my car stereo, when i just rotate it completely plugged in.
Anyone have anything else to offer on this? I know it's not a headphone connection issue as it happens when using bluetooth in the car as well. It happens with Poweramp, Listen and Audible so I guess it must be something to do with it killing the apps or something? It drives me mad!
I was experiencing this issue a year and a half ago when I owned an HTC legend. It happened then on stock rom and also CM6.
I've owned my SGS for about 8 months now and have experienced this bug on every rom I've tried (froyo, KC1, KG3, now CM7).
I've looked at the log files when this happens and it simply says something to the effect of "cannot read from source" or "premature end of file." (I can't remember exactly). Strange thing is, the music is only paused, I can hit play and resume right where it stopped, so there is obviously no issues with reading the file. It also happens when I'm listening to podcasts in google listen.
I've learned to live with it.
Also about the headphones, I use the external speaker when rocking my baby daughter to sleep sometimes and it happens then too.
thanks for sharing: I get this periodically and wasn't sure what was causing it
Have you tried fixing permissions?

I have the same issue, any luck with a solution?
Does anyone else have this issue? It's very annoying, I would be trying to listen to a song and all of a sudden the track will skip around a little bit. I know it isn't the file because it plays perfectly on my PC. I have this problem with any music player too not just the stock one.

i'd first try copying everything of value off of the SD, and formatting. I would then copy your music back on...not the ones that were already on there...a fresh copy. need to tighten up that SD
I'm using the internal SD for music. Do you still recommend formatting?
Btw thanks for the response.

Are you using headphones? The headphone jack can sometimes be a pain to get a pair of headphone into. (If it moves while not in all the way it can sometimes pause). Does it have the same problem with the speaker on the phone?

Same for me, haven't tried with just the speaker. And its not the headphones pulling out, cause it cuts in and out some, then stops. All I have to do is hit play again.

This issue of the headphone jacks was discussed in an early thread last fall. I, and others, found that the jack may not go all the way in. As a result, I was getting only one channel. A little extra push seated the jack properly for full sound. Different people reported different experiences, depending on the headphone or earbud brands they had.
Edit: I ran the HTC music player, a streaming music app, and the FM radio for several songs each, and I had no cutting out or loss of music. My Vivid is ICS, stock, no unlock or root.

I don't have any issues either... might be some app in the background? I listen music (from sd card and Internet radio) every day in my car for about 50 minutes a day...

on every ROM
Every ROM I've flashed, since root, has done this. I have to go back to my music player, force close it, re open, and it plays fine for about another hour. Pandora, Slacker, rocket player, Google play, and tune-in. Same results. Now on Miui v5, same results.....???

Actually in 4.1.X roms, its where the music is, I moved my music to my internal sd card and I dont have that problem anymore. For some reason, even the file managers, like astro file managers or the stock cm one, mix the two.
I have this problem too, it just freezes, then starts about a second later. Using Google Play Music.
I also have no issues.
I am on the stock Bell Canada ICS ROM and use WinAmp. My music & video is on the external SD card.
Whenever listening to music with the stock player the music pauses for no reason after a while. Doesn't seem to have a pattern, it has nothing to do with notifications or anything else that I can recognize. This has happened with plugged in earbuds and with a bluetooth headset so I'm guessing it's not the jack's fault.
I searched around but found nothing specific to this device, is anyone else having an issue like this? I haven't really tried using other music players, although I think it happened once with Winamp too.
On a side note, is there anyway to make a bluetooth headset control playback for programs other than the stock player? For example if I'm using Winamp and I press Next on the bluetooth headset, Winamp will pause and the stock player will start playing, really annoying. I wouldn't mind using the stock player if it worked correctly.
Not being very useful, but i have exact the same issue

have you flipped your phone over?
Did you set your CPU speed too low?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I have the turn over motion disabled but I did activate the CPU Power Saving option. Do you think that could be the reason?
It could be since sometime when i set the CPU below 500 mega hertz the music stops occasionally when the screen is off. Just try to set above 500.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Well I disabled CPU power saving and I'm trying a different music player. Haven't experienced any weird pauses. Hopefully that was the problem.
