For some reason, lately after a while of non usage maybe like 20-30 minutes randomly, when I go back and try to watch or view something there will be no volume. It turns out my media volume has gone all the way down and I have to turn it back up myself.
Mild nuisance but has anyone been thru this? Could it be some odd stray app?

Hi all...
Just got my Tilt a few weeks ago and thus far have been enjoying every moment. I have run into an issue that is a bit irritating, wondering if anyone has any ideas.
Streaming audio over the phone works great, but I can't figure out how to keep the music playing when the phone goes into sleep mode.
I get connected, it plays for a couple of minutes then the sound turns off along with the screen. I hit the power button to wake the phone up, the screen turns on and the music comes back. It appears that the phone is staying connected to the website, it is just the sound that goes away.
Ideally I would like to have the screen off to conserve battery power, while listening to the radio. I am having this issue when using the built in speaker and while using headphones connected through the USB port.
Any help or suggestions would be appriciated.
Yeah, I just tried it with mine and I get the same results - turning it to standby causes the music to stop but the stream seems to stay active. So, I would suggest getting a hold of a program called AE Button Plus, which allows you to remap all of the buttons on the front of the device. There are options in there to disable the standby mode when a button is pressed, and then you can turn off the screen but keep the device running with a different button press. Check it out and you'll understand what I mean, and I think that would be your best bet.

use wktask to minimize streaming apps for audio to stay on.
Speaking of AE Button Plus, also make sure you read my related Button Enhancer Bible for more tips & tricks.
In my experience, the music will still play through Bluetooth A2DP headphones when the phone goes to sleep.
hey does anyone know why the phones "click" every now and then when the screen is off? it seems to happen if im moving in the car or out and about. the "click" is the same as the "screenlock sound". the phone clicks, the screen turns on then off again and as littlie as ten secs later, does it again. also sometimes clicks without the screen turning on. turned off wifi and gps but it still does it. it doesn't seem to matter what rom im running either. does it have something to do with refreshing the data? is there any way to keep the screenlock sound but disable this random clicking? its a bit annoying!
That does sound weird (pun intended). Do you have a case on the phone that might be "bumping " buttons while in your pocket?
Have you tested all your notifications to make sure its not a corrupted audio file trying to play?

Hello, i've got this problem right after EMUI 3.0 update. When a notification pops up - sometimes after the sound of the notification, mp3's from my internal storage starts playing. Even if no music app (or any apps) are running on the background at that time. There's no other way to stop that than bring down the ringtone volume (not media volume!) and wait a few minutes or restart the phone. It happens only about 1-2 times a day, but it's very annoying. Anyone else got this problem?
The only mention about this problem i've found is here.

- Sometimes music player will start playing a local file randomly when you have a different music app running like digitally imported, while using the smart cover.
Im not using the smart cover, but i've figured out that the smart cover function was set on, so i turned it off and i will see if it will get better.
did it help? i have the same issue every time i get a facebook notification.

Does anybody elses phone keep switching itself right up to max?
It's happened since day 1 and is truly frustrating. I keep turning it down to medium volume and leave it on the desk then out of nowhere the notification or ringtone blows my eardrums! I think it has something to do with after receiving a call.
Or thinking about it, I have been getting a lot of nuisance calls lately so press vol- to mute it while I search if it is a known nuisance or not, perhaps that might have something to do with it? Can someone confirm?
Try disabling the Pocket mode. Here is how

Hey guys since I've owned this phone I've had constant problems with the phone automatically adjusting the volume usually way down. When not on Bluetooth it's less pronounced but still occurs, I'll turn on a podcast and the volume will drop on the phone to like 20%.
On Bluetooth, the problem becomes an absolute nightmare. Every time I switch apps, or even open new browser tabs the volume settings appear on screen and randomly jump either up or down. If I'm moving quickly between apps or browsers, this can occur multiple times (up or down) within a 5 second window. Pretty much anytime I turn on audio I have to turn the volume all the way back up.
I've disabled Bluetooth absolute volume in dev settings but don't see any other fix for this.
Also, the problem is independent of player. Spotify does it, stitcher does it, VLC does it, and pi music does it. And even when I'm connected to Bluetooth and doing nothing audio related but just switching between apps and browser it will be jumping the volume levels around and popping up the audio slider on the right side of the screen.
What Bluetooth device are you using? Perhaps it uses touch controls and they're acting up
