Sound Issues After Updating To 47E - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I haven't seen anyone else post this but after updating to 47E, I lost my media sounds. Ringtones, Alarms, notifications all were fine but sounds like touchpad t ones, screen sounds, game sounds and worst of all, speakerphone was gone.
I tried factory resetting and flashing 47E again but no luck. I had to go back to 47D to get them working again. But that didn't last. It's intermittent. And when the sounds aren't working, neither is the proximity sensors when I'm making a call.
No one else had this problem?

No sound at all

Hi All,
For some reason today the sound on my phone stopped working. No music, alarms, system notifications etc. Phone calls work just fine. Also, if I plug head phones in there is also NO sound. Sound is on and turned all the way upand should be playing..
Im at a loss... Never experienced this.

Have you ruu'd and see if your problem persists

[Q] Sounds issue

On my HTC One running CM-11-20140220-NIGHTLY I can not hear a lot of sounds.
I am unable to listen to notification sounds and ringtones when I go to select them which I used to be able to do before I updated to one of the nightlies.
When my phone is awake I sometimes receive notification sounds like I normally should but when my phone is asleep I never receive them.
I never hear the ringtone when I am receiving a phone call.
I have tried everything that I can think of to fix this issue but I am just at a loss.
It has not just recently happened. It has been happening for the past 6 or 7 updates, the reason I didn't post sooner is because I was hoping that it would have been fixed by now. I'd like to know if this is a common issue or if it is just happening to me. Sound works just fine on my phone so I know it's not my speakers. When I play music etc. it plays just fine. It's only ringtones and Notification sounds.

Weird sound issue with ringtones and notification

Hi All,
My wife's i9305 has a really weird issue which goes like this:
Ringtones are silent - this includes when the phone is being called and selecting ringtones out of the menu
Notification sounds are silent - this includes messages received and selecting sounds manually
Youtube and other media apps work on loudspeaker without issue
Phone loudspeaker works
Normal UI clicks and sounds work fine. Includes the swipe to unlock and volume up and down beeps
I originally thought this was some kind of weird software issue as all the settings seemed fine and it was running an older version of CM10.
So I decided I'd completely nuke the phone and start from scratch with a new KK CM11 build - something I've done a thousand times before.
With the phone completely reset to default the issue is still apparent.
Without knowing too much about the hardware, is there perhaps a different speaker for the ringtones and notifications? If not, then this issue is pretty odd is it not?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated - at least before I attempt to order a replacement loudspeaker part.
Cheers,
Jordan.
*bump* - I take it that everyone is just as perplexed as I am then...
Update: Notification sounds do work OK - However when you select them manually they dont.

Sound for notifications randomly stops

Hey guys,
So i have a really annoying problem. Im running firmware 6xxx with viper 7.01. I have a problem where randomly my phone stops making sound on notifications, calls and alarms. If i play media it works fine but everything else makes no noise. Then it'll randomly start again or i need to reboot it. It seems to regularly happen after i charge it. The problem is it has happened with ARHD as well. Both ROMS have had full wipes before i flashed them. Anyone have any ideas, it is a very annoying problem.
Thanks.
Ask in the ROM thread.

Weird problem, no "media" related sounds. Alarm, calls, ringtone work perfectly

Weird problem, no "media" related sounds. Alarm, calls, ringtone work perfectly
Hello, for some reason in the last couple of days i can hear no media related sound.
What's weird though is that i can hear normally call sounds, phone ringing and alarm.
The issue started while on the latest version of MIUI. I thought this was related with operating system so I installed Pixel Experience 10 (through complete wipe out, even internal storage). The problem persists there as well.
After looking around, it looks like people had similar issue when the phone mistakenly thought headphones were connected. As it turns out, this is not the case with me. (see 2nd post)
Edit #2:
It looks like it's indeed the "earphone mode" thats causing the problem. Using the aerphone mode off app I managed to get media sound playing again. The problem now is that as soon as i close the app, earphone phone turns back on. Any ideas for permanent fix are welcome.
Thanks
looking around, it looks like the phone might somehow got stuck in like "headphones connected" mode.
I've never connected in the past with any kind of headphones, but i got the charging port changed.
In any case i've tried connecting and disconnecting with Bluetooth headphones but didn't solve the problem.
I will see if i can get my hands on any type-c ones and try again.
Edit: i see there is an option to select the audio output device, and the phone is the only choice, so the headphones mode wasn't the problem
