I am having an issue with bluetooth when I switch from one app using bluetooth to another. Basically, when I am either listening to music or podcasts and then take a call the bluetooth drops out for about 2-3 seconds and the phone goes into speaker mode. This doesn't necessarily happen when going from the music or podcast app to the phone call, but after the phone call, the bluetooth drops out and I can hear the music or podcast playing on the phone's speaker for about 2-3 seconds before my headphones pick up the signal again.
I don't believe it is the headphones since I have used them extensively with 2 other smart phones with no issues.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Anyone else with this issue?
Hello, I have a foxl bluetooth speaker and when connected through bluetooth, music plays fine for almost exactly 5 minutes. Then, the sound cuts off. On the phone, it still shows that the song is playing and that the bluetooth connection is live, but there is no sound. Sometimes changing the track brings the sound back but not often. I have also turned off power saving features and turn off teh WiFi and it still does the same thing. Please any help!? I have a nice speaker, but cant use it.
My AT&T GS5 will connect to my car's Sync system fine, but when I play music or audio, nothing happens. I have verified with Spotify and Stitcher. This only happens once in a while, but when it does, a full reboot will not resolve it. To be clear, the track plays (progresses in the status bar) but no audio is output. Anyone have this issue?
I stream music through bluetooth devices all the time. Not once have I had this issue. Maybe try turning the volume all the way down then back up? Seems like they have some bad S 5's out there but not all of them.
Try turning the volume up

So I got a new S5, and am having the same issue. Maybe it is a problem with my car? Rebooting the phone will allow it to connect, but music won't play still. Will have to take the car in.
Though one thing leading me to believe that there is an issue with the phone is I try to turn bluetooth off and back on to connect to the car. When I do this, bluetooth turns off, but will not toggle back on without a reboot. That is definitely an issue with the phone, no?
I recently got an idea to try totally wireless earbuds. Pairing was easy, but now whenever I listen to audio, it cuts out, cuts in, cuts out, repeatedly for like a second. Then it plays normally for 5 deconds and starts to cut out and in again.
I've tried to use different AVRCP versions, boot in safe mode, remove all bluetooth devices and pair these again but nothing helps. On another phone there is no problem with airdots, and I can listen to music on my Soundbar with bluetooth without problem. I'm on latest stock pie rom, bootloader locked. Any ideas?
It's normal for airdots. I used them with Galaxy A7 2017 and sometimes had this problem. Now sometimes i has this problem with XZ1C. Solving is -- just pausing music for about 5-10 seconds and then play it again.
Pausing seems to work for me as well. Also listening screen off will fix the issue. Weird.
Hello everybody,
First of all : Happy new year !
I own a Pixel 4 XL running a stock ROM with the bootloader still locked (I actually don't flash my phones anymore since I'm a team Pixel member haha). I use Android Auto very often because of my job.
Here is my problem : Since the december update (I guess) when I disconnect my phone from my car (using the cable & bluetooth), and put my phone in my pocket, the song from the last music suddenly runs very loud (max volume) even if I manually stop the music player beforehand. I tried a lot of things to stop this problem that seems very random : I cleared the YT Music cache, I disabled motion sense gestures, I even did a factory reset but the problem is still here.
I have to think every time I get out of my car to low the volume before this bug comes out..
Have you encountered that problem ? Do you guys have any idea that could help me ?
Thanks in advance !
Nobody can help me ?
I don't know, what does team Pixel say?
I don't think there is a solution and you aren't alone. I don't use YT for audio, but all music apps have the same pain in the ass behavior because they don't close automatically and most often you have to use "recents" to kill them off. This is the same with Spotify and Pandora. I find myself having to close AA itself sometimes because it stays open long after I've left the car. Sometimes 20 minutes later I look down and notice it is still running. If it can start up automatically when BT connects, or even when "hearing" driving noises like the engine, the reverse should be true. You turn the car off, unplug, exit the vehicle WHY does it continue running? Not one of the top 3 music apps will kill itself.
Thanks for answering !
I actually didn't know anyone else would have the same problem so this is reassuring me hah
Yes that is so annoying having your phone waking up with music with the volume toaximum whereas 10 minutes ago you thought you did everything to shut it up
I think I've had this happen literally once and I do use YouTube Music. Have never had it replicated. Is it still happening with the happened with the January update?

Unfortunately, yes it still happens despite the last update. The only thing that seems help me avoiding the problem is when I manually stop the music in my car before unplugging the phone. Then, for safety I put the media volume to the minimum so if the music starts again in my pocket, I won't hear it.

Interesting, so you're connected via Bluetooth to your car, turn off the ignition, and it'll still be playing? At that point, that's when my YouTube Music pauses.

Actually no. I plug my P4XL to my car through USB then it connects via Bluetooth and Android Auto runs on my car's screen. Everything work fine. When I'm arrived, I unplug my phone, turn of the ignition and the sound normally stops and YTM pauses. But something like 10 minutes later, when I'm far from the car, the last song I was playing in the car restart through the phone with absolutely no interaction on it.

Ah okay. Thanks for the clarification. Yeah I use Android Auto just on my phone.

I have a similar problem. I drive a lot throughout the day and Stream SiriusXM on my Phone through the BT on my work van. Very often, I get out and within an unspecified period of time, Sirius will start playing, full volume for no reason. It's as annoying as the Google Assistant suddenly responding to something I said without me using the OK Google prompt.
The fix is to close Sirius and swipe away the player controls in the status bar dropdown

Thanks for your feedback ! I don't have the Google Assistant problem you have but the exact same problem for the media. So it's not due to YT Music or Sirius. It's an overall media problem.
Unfortunately, I can't close the app because when I unplug the phone, YouTube Music isn't even open. And swiping right the player controls doesn't seem to work.
The only thing that seems to work is to stop the stream through Android Auto before turning off the engine and unplugging. But I have to think every time I leave my car

I haven't tried stopping it before I turn off the van, but that's an idea. I think when I turn off the engine, it pauses the stream on the device, sure, but what causes it to just start playing again??
TBH, that and the random dead spots around the edges of my phone since Android 11, I'm getting a little aggravated.

I absolutely don't know what causes it to start the music again. But closing it before turning off the engine and then force closing the streaming app does help. That way, the phone has nothing to turn back on
Regarding the dead spots since the update I don't have this problem... Yet. But yeah, Android 11 is one of the worst major update the past few years. Hope they will fix these problems soon.

Yes I already tried but the support didn't even seem to understand the real problem. We were speaking in my native language though. Seems like french support sucks
