Hi, I have a problem with the audio streaming on Android auto. I'm using simple radio (I've tried also other apps), but every time I press play, after 4-5 seconds the music stops.
Do you guys have any solutions?
Thanks
Delete cache and data files of Google Play Services in the settings.
I have the same issue from time to time.

Good day all!
I've searched the original thread by Vibranturk, but unfortunately could not find anyone/any post similar to mine.
I use my phone to play music in my car via Bluetooth, but it seems to not transmit. However, with the equalizer going (on the Captivate), it shows activity, but nothing is coming through the speakers. I tried placing an outbound call via the same Bluetooth, and I was able to place a normal call through Bluetooth, which leads me to believe that it's specific, maybe even as specific as the music player(s) included with the ROM. I do notice that it shows the Bluetooth activity sign, but the music just isn't transmitting. Could it be either music player causing a conflict? I tried using Titanium to uninstall one of them, but it still happens.
I've done the reset to factory defaults, wipe caches (both partition and Devlik[SP]), and I keep getting the same issue.
Other than this problem, the ROM is great, and thank you, Vibranturk!
Any and all help is much appreciated!

I've also tried removing each music program one-by-one and see if it would play through the Bluetooth. I have even uninstalled both and installed an open-source Android player from the market -- still no dice...

Hi xda'ers
I couldn't really find another place to ask this so I thought I would try here.
When streaming music from Google music to the chrome cast I find that when the song is very long (say a live dj set mp3) and i seek somewhere to the middle all audio cuts out. Both the chromecast and the android devices both think they have buffered the new area of the song and say they are playing but no audio comes out. Furthermore if after I start a long song I wait 3-4 mins (enough time for the full 100-200MB mp3 to have fully buffered on the chromecast) then seeking works fine.
Is anyone else noticing this behavior? I also noticed that the same thing happened when streaming to the nexusQ but i ignored it because that was an unreleased product.
I have had trouble with podcasts. If GPlay Music loses the connection there's no way to reestablish it without losing my place in the podcast. However the third party app Remotecast seems to work for seeking even after having resumed a lost connection.

Has anyone else run into this? Last night I tried to cast some music from the music app, and the cast button would not appear. Now I've had some issues with this in the past that I could generally fix by rebooting the chromecast a few times, but last night nothing would work.
To be clear - the CC is on the network, and is specific to only some of my phone's apps:
I spent about an hour attempting to fix the problem and found that the cast button was missing for both google music and Pandora, but present for both Netflix and YouTube. I verified I could actually connect/cast in Netflix/YouTube just fine. I tried rebooting the Chromecast a half dozen times via both the Chromecast app on my phone, as well as manually by turning my AVR on and off. I rebooted my router. I used the Chromecast app to "restore to factory default" in the menu. I thought maybe it was the music app, so I rebooted my phone, cleared the cach on the music app, cleared data on the music app... Nothing. I finally gave up and watched 2 episodes of Breaking Bad, casting via Netflix.
Afterward, right before calling it a night, I checked one last time and sure as **** the icon had come back for music and Pandora.
I'm just wondering if anyone has seen this or knows how to force it to fix itself in the future. I've had this happen in the past where I just had to give up and wait and the next day I wouldn't have the problem... Google's online help offers nothing for this scenario, dealing only with the case where the CC can not connect to the network....
It's quite frustrating!
I had the same problem. Quick solution is to make sure the music app (play music/pandora/whatever) is completely closed, then launch the chromecast app. Send it to the background, and then launch the music app. Cast button will be there everytime.

Thanks, I'll give that a try if it happens again. Though to be honest I have to think I tried that. I was force-closing music and Pandora repeatedly as well as repeatedly opening the CC app.
Just a bump that I"m still seeing this strange issue.
It occurred again last night - no cast icon for the audio apps - Google music and pandora (I forgot to try Songza). The apps w/ video (YouTube/VEVO/Netflix) all had the cast button. I have two Chromecasts on the network and tried with two devices (phone and tablet). Both devices had the same behavior and both chromecasts were present on the apps that had the cast button, so the chromecasts are correctly connected to the network, and it's not specific to the phone. I tried rebooting the router, both chromecasts, and my phone and couldn't resolve it.
Once again the fix was only to wait and an hour or so later the cast button returned to google music and Pandora.
So strange and completely frustrating. What's more frustrating is that I can't find an official support forum for help directly from Google. Tough to fix something when you can't ask the question to begin with. Though I did find a support phone number so I guess I could try that...
Interesting to see that this is such a long standing issue. Just had the exact same problem with the brand new lollipop version of play music, but it looks like the issue wasn't related to the recent update.
Incidentally, removing updates fixed the problem for me.
What brand of routers are you guys using? I have a buffalo, wonder if it's related.
Edit :
Appears to actually be related to the new play services update.

I noticed a very odd, and big, bug today on my Moto X. I had just got around to linking it to my cars bluetooth and noticed after I ended a call the music didn't resume. Upon opening Pandora I found the music was on fast forward and would not let me stop it. If I was to skip to another song the new song was also on fast forward. I have since tested it on another bluetooth device to rule out my cars bluetooth as the culprit, and it happened on the other device as well. I was also able to reproduce it using YouTube (so it's not a bug with Pandora). I have done a factory reset and the bug remains. I am wondering if anyone else has this or if this could possibly just be a problem with my phone?
Here is the workflow to reproduce the bug:
Connect phone to bluetooth device that supports both phone and music profiles.
Open up youtube and start watching a video (audio will play through bluetooth)
After about 15 seconds click the home button
Call someone (I called a 1-800 number)
After about 15 seconds on the phone, hang up
Now go back to youtube and press play
The video will be playing in fast forward (no audio) and there isn't a way to stop this.
Once you disconnect bluetooth you can then play the video fine
*You may have to make a phone call 2 or 3 times before this happens, but it will happen - at least on my phone.
Can others please test to see if you can reproduce it? My phone is stock and running kitkat with all apps up-to-date. I have also tested this using my Nexus 5 and it does not have this issue. I will try to record a video tomorrow to better show what is happening.
same problem
i am having the same problem, but mine doesn't appear to be connected to bluetooth just all media is fast forward with no audio.
tested so far:
1) audible
2) youtube
3) videos recorded locally stored both on SD and Local drive
4) downloaded videos
5) played on mx player pro, vlc, stock media player
I am rooted and running lollipop on my note 3 N900
Hi Guys,
Any of you have experienced wi-fi drops using Chromecast Audio?, the thing is it supposed to work properly until I wake up the phone to check messages, or do something and the wi-fi suddenly drops and few seconds later it reconnects, sometimes it also happens when using Bluetooth playing music.
- It happens with the embedded Music application casting to Chromecast audio
- Also casting to Chromecast audio using Neutron music player
- Playing music on Kodi using Yatse remote control (in this case the only relation between my phone and music player software is the remote control because Kodi is playing music itself)
I tried what Sony suggested in their support webpage (except doing a factory reset) and no luck...
Any ideas here?
Thanks and cheers,
Bruno.
