Sound problems while playing PUBG Mobile - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

I have encountered a weird problem specifically related to PUBG. When I start the app, it sometimes, randomly routs the audio to phones main speakers (the speaker primarily used for calls). Sometimes, it routs the audio through the loudspeaker even while I have connected a wired headset through adapter provided in the box.
When I connect a Bluetooth headset before starting the game, it plays extremely downgraded sound through the headset or simply uses the primary speaker (as above) as sound output, totally ignoring the bluetooth headset. Whenever this kind of problem occurs, restarting the device solves it, but on a later stage it comes back. Other applications like youtube and Google Play Music behaves as they should with all the three sound output options (Loud Speaker, Wired Headset and Bluetooth Headset). The problem occurs only with PUBG Mobile. Can anyone please provide a solution to this?

Encountered the same problem with Bluetooth headset and I fixed it by -
1) Going to world chat.
2) Pressing the voice message button for a few seconds.
3) sound stops coming for a second .
4) You get perfect quality audio after that.
PS - It only happens for me using Bluetooth headphones, not in my earbuds. And never tried phone loudspeakers while playing the game.
Actually what happens is, when the game starts, for some odd reason, your phone thinks you're receiving a call and acts accordingly. If you use any of the mic actions in the game for a second, it fixes it.

That's my concern. Do other phones also have this issue or just Mi A2 has it?

Having Bluetooth "Handsfree" and A2DP connected at same time causing severe skipping

Having Bluetooth "Handsfree" and A2DP connected at same time causing severe skipping
Hi....I know there are a lot of posts regarding skipping while playing MP3s over A2DP. My problem is perhaps a little bit different because I've narrowed my problem down to the handsfree bluetooth service.
Here's my situation with my unlocked HTC TyTN II using the stock HTC ROM and with no registiry modifications (bitpool, etc)
If I have only A2DP connected and streaming music to an external bluetooth receiver the MP3 playback is flawless. It sounds fantastic. I've tried Windows Media Player, PocketMusic, and PocketPlayer and they all work just great.
However, when I turn on my handsfree headset (which is a separate device from my A2DP receiver) and allow it to connect to my TyTN II, extreme stuttering immediately occurs through the A2DP music stream. When I shut off my handsfree headset the stuttering stops and the music stream returns to its usual fantastic sound. The problem can be replicated also by leaving the handsfree headset powered ON and simply enabling handsfree service on the HTC TyTN II to cause the stuttering to begin. The stuttering stops immediately when handsfree service is subsequently disabled.
Anyone else out their experience this? Any suggestions? For the time being I have to resort to disabling handsfree when streaming music to my A2DP bluetooth receiver.
Skipping/Cutting out/Speeding Up/Slowing down
Not much to add other than 'Me Too!' and thanks for tracking this down since i thought i was going nuts since I've had a couple of times where i thought i had it resolved only for it to crop up again.
Are you also experiencing your A2DP audio speeding up and slowing down along with the audio cutting out? since to me that is the most bizarre of all of the audio freakery going on.
I found my Logitech handsfree less likely to cause cut outs when on than my Jawbone does. but neither were trouble free.
Just an update for those that may experience the same problem as me. I've noticed that sometimes I have perfect audio even though I am connected to my handsfree car system while streaming music via A2DP. So this leads me to believe that bitpool settings and such are not the issue...since the perfect audio can occur with the default settings. I have also heard in other threads that flashing a new radio may help...but haven't gone to that measure yet.
What I have been able to determine is that this horrible skipping/stuttering occurs when my phone is changing cell phone towers.
That is, if
1) Streaming audio over bluetooth via A2DP
AND
2) Tytn II also connected to a handsfree device
then A2DP skips horribly when the phone needs to switch cell towers.
I have confirmed this by using the program PhoneAlarm to log the cell phone towers my phone is connected to. My A2DP stuttering/skipping problem coincides with every change in cell phone tower.
Now having said all this there is still one other factor that plays into it that I haven't quite figured out. If I soft reset my device and then immediately connect to my car and A2DP stereo then I do not get the stuttering problem when changing cell phone towers. However if I spend the day using the device, active-syncing and such at work, then on the drive home I will ALWAYS get the stuttering during every cell phone tower hand-over.
Frustrating. Anyway...hopefully I'll eventually figure out the last piece of the puzzle. I would rather not have to soft reset every time I get in my car just so that I can get good audio.

I do recall getting this behaviour when using Windows Media player...but I have started using the new Pocket Player and have since never experienced the audio slow down problem.
I found a work-around that works for me. It's posted here:

I seem to have related but a different problem with skipping.
I have both Sony and goldlantern BT headphones which i tried (stereo profile).
Both severely skip audio when located on the left side of my belt. Silly but the reception/skipping problems improves a GREAT deal when i move it to the right side. It works flawlessly inside of the building where i have no phone signal but outside -- it skips horribly, even worse after 6.1rom upgrade.
Can anyone confirm that the BT signal going through the body worsens skipping? If so, I assume the signal strength/BT/wireless channel may be at fault, not the tower switching as for me, it happens even when I stay stationary.
Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED!
TILT - R2 VEGA WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.19209 (Build 19209.1.0.2) ROM
I think part of the problem can be the A2DP device as well. I had a pair ofr HT 820 older bluetooth headsets with A2DP that were skipping and annoying. I went out and bought some s9s and the problem went away. I figured just for a test I would try the HT820 out again, still skipping. So for me it was not the phone but the A2DP device.

i thought that too but i have two different headsets from two different manufacturers, both are skipping the same...
A2DP requires a lot of the bandwidth Bluetooth can provide. Having a 2nd connection open simply exceeds what the Bluetooth chip can handle, no surprise in that. If the BT headset keeps the connection open it's very likely to happen.

what do you mean by a SECOND CONNECTION?
i have 2 different headsets because i thought that i have a poor headset, but both work similarly bad, which makes me think it is the tilt, not the headphones. i do not have 2 connections, never has it and not even sure if it is possible....
Lowering of bitrate did not help at all.....
Anyone have experienced these problems? anyone is using BT headset besides motorola s9?
On mine it does it when it picks up a wi-fi hotspot. When I'm driving the wi-fi is on when the screen is and whenever I pass a hot spot it drops out. Turning the wi-fi off solved it. Don't know if it does it with cell towers.

The thread was initially about skipping when BOTH an A2DP stereo headset AND a BT handsfree were connected at the same time, as the title shows. I was commenting on that.
Other than this, when I want to listen to music I can leave the Kaiser in my room and walk around in my entire flat with the headphones on without skipping (around 10-15m straight line, with some walls).
However, Wifi must not be active and communicating, otherwise either / both of them will drop. If I'm using Wifi and start streaming audio via A2DP, the wifi will slow down a lot and sometimes disconnect. In the same way if Wifi is communicating the audio will skip. If both of them are active but one is idle everything's fine. But that's also normal as both share the same frequencies and will step on each other. When usage is low it's not noticeable but when both are using a lot of bandwidth then they will disturb each other.
The cell radio doesn't seem to cause any problems for me.

Bluetooth Question

I have a question regarding bluetooth.
I have an sony HBH-DS980 that works great for music playback on my tytn ii.
The problem i have with it is that when the music is playing and a receive a phone call it notifies me and i answer the call. After the call is over the bluetooth link seems to drop and will no reconnect untill i turn the headset off and on.
Is there a way to make the headset go back to music playing and not drop link automatically?

Not having experience of this unit this may be down to the individual headset and I hope some others will come in with experience of this.
Does the headset support both Headset and Wireless Stereo profile?
If it does not, the function may not be supported. I use a Promate PM-2600 and it supports both and when I have selected Wireless Stereo (this has to be done manually!) it works without problem when answering a call and passing back to music or video play.
Hope someone with information on this particular unit gets back to you.

Hi,
I own a Sony HBH-DS980 too, and experiencing the same problem Linxus40's having, but on my 8925 Tilt, of which is essentially the same phone as Linxus40's HTC Tynii .
It's very frustrating having to reboot the HBH-DS980 & re-press the play button to re-establish the bt connection after completion of every incoming call. It's s my understanding that the Sony HBH-DS980 supports both wireless headset & the wireless stereo profile, as I've got no problem placing & receiving unlimited bt calls without disconnection when I'm not listening to music. This said, I find the HBH-DS980's bt audio 'sound quality' fantastic thru the 8925 Tilt.
btw: I've got PocketMusic 5 and PocketPlayer 3.51 on my Tilt, but experience significantly better sound (audio quality) when my music is played via PocketMusic compared to PocketPlayer. Curious if any body else here notices this too.
Ok, any other Sony HBH-DS908 bluetooth headset owners experiencing the dropped bluetooth connection problem Linuxus40 and I are experiencing? Any advice on how the problem can be corrected?
Thanks in advance.

I'm facing the same issue as well! Tried numerous hard resets and fixes you would have thought imaginable! Unfortunately the problem is still existent and it is freaking irritating when you have to press the play button to repair the headset. Worst still - when the music starts playing through the speaker after a call, everyone starts to look at you like you are some moron.
I do really hope there is a way to resolve the problem. Any new fixes i can try???
Senior members? Any help?

I have this exact same problem on my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220.
The bluetooth will disconnect after hanging up a phone call. I don't press anything on the headset, I wait for the other person to hang up. When it hangs up, it immediately disconnects the bluetooth headset.
Annoying!
Probably a problem with the bluetooth stack then. The stack is already known to be very buggy and have problems with lots of Bluetooth devices. Luckily, unlike the graphics card, it looks like HTC will be releasing a fixed Bluetooth stack at some point in the future. In the mean time, you are probably out of luck.
Bluetooth connection problem also with Tilt
I have a Plantronics 510 BT earpiece that for no discernible reason is connected one minute and gone the next too. I haven't been able to determine any combination of actions, such as ending a call as the culprit. I always have to make the connection manually between the earpiece and the Tilt also - it never links automatically when I turn the earpiece on like it did with my Treo 650. I've had this Tilt for 3 days and this is probably going to be a show stopper and make me return it to at&t before the eval period in spite of everything else good about the phone. I also have a Plantronics Pulsar 590 stereo headset that I haven't experimented enough with yet to know if the connection is as flaky. But the bottom line is - I'll be damned if I'm going to try to fiddle with establishing a connection and all the steps it can take while I'm driving down the road!

Bluetooth static / crackling sound

Does anyone else have bluetooth audio quality issues with their S10? When I connect my phone to my car bluetooth, the audio is crackly sounding, somewhat like a static sound. It seems to be with the bluetooth connection itself and not any particular app - phone calls, data calls, youtube videos, spotify, discord all for example suffer from this. I need to test a bit more but I think it happens on my bluetooth headset too, but it's harder to tell because it's a cheap headset to begin with. However, the car issue does NOT happen with any other device I use, so it isn't something to do with my car.
Nobody?
I have same issue, tested with an iphone and quality is normal

Bluetooth call issues

I am having issues when I am connecting my k20 pro with my car's Bluetooth for answering phone calls. The Bluetooth gets connected and music plays using Bluetooth without any issues, but the call volume output doesn't come from the Bluetooth. Has anyone else face this issue?

Have you installed a custom ROM, or are you on official MIUI?
I know in call Bluetooth audio doesn't work on GSI ROMs.

I haven't tried with any other blue tooth device yet. Let me try it out.
Bluetooth sound breaks continuously while playing audio in car
When i connect my k20 pro using Bluetooth to my car audio, the music breaks continuously, i have tried with other phones but the problem is only seen in this k20 pro, i tried it in another car audio system same problem
I have also the same issue... Problem is with K20 pro.... Reset 2 times but still the problem is not resolved... Most annoying thing that Mi service center can do only Hard Reset as first and last solution...
I have no issues with the audio, issue happened only with the call functions. I suspect it to be a compatibility issue with my car. Since k20 pro has Bluetooth 5g, however my car doesn't have this.

Bluetooth is backward compatible. Like if you have a capable device, it will use all the features the host supports.
One tip: If you go into Developer Settings on your phone, you can hard-set the Bluetooth settings.

I'm having the same issue, the audio comes from the loud speaker of the phone.
On the screen on the phone you can see that the audio is connected to the car Bluetooth, you can then select loudspeaker or normal audio , if you swap the audio to a different channel and then revert back to the car Bluetooth it is connecting correctly to the Bluetooth
I am having the same issue
I have redmi k20... Over Bluetooth music is fine, but over call the person can't hear you...
I tried everything.... Restarting my phone, pair unpair Bluetooth, even hard reset my phone... It started working for 2 calls after hard reset but it is again causing problrms
same problem here.
when I connect my K20 to my car via BT, music breaks after 2-3 songs, and car controls (next song/previous song) stop working.
also, when I connect my BT Bose headphones, sometimes sound does not come through (mic works)
anyone found a solution?

That sounds more like a battery optimization issue. Try turning off battery optimization AND set App battery saver to "no restrictions" for your music player.
I had the same issue with Xiaomi Redmi 9
Hard reset solved it.

Question Hardware or software issue? PUBG mobile, headphones in but voice chat goes through phone speakers.

I just got a Note 10 Pro. All is good except when playing PUBG with headphones plugged in.
All the sounds from the gameplay go through the headphones except for when my teammates talk through the voice chat. The voice chat audio gets routed through the phone's speakers instead of going through the headphones like all the other audio.
However, when using Bluetooth headphones, this problem doesn't occur.
I've tried restarting the device, restarting the game, changing game settings, but nothing.
I assume this is a software issue right? Otherwise I'll look to change the device.
Thanks.
