Audio Pausing

dgh1981

Good afternoon. I just picked up my Galaxy S6 Edge back on 5/2 and love it so far. I am having a nagging issue though with audio. Whether using Spotify, Stitcher, etc, I will randomly have issues with the audio pausing. It happens at my desk at work, in my pocket with headphones, and in the car with bluetooth audio. I press a button to activate the screen and I see that the audio controller is paused. I hit play and it picks right back up. It doesnt seem like its an issue with streaming because it also does this with Spotify offline playlists and SiriusXM downloaded shows. I checked the settings for gestures and made sure the mute gesture is turned off. Anyone have any ideas? I hate having to hit play 6 times during a walk, etc.

Thanks!

From Android Central post:

Try turning off voice control...my music would randomly pause also..turned that feature off and it hasn't since....

Older versions had it in the Language & Keyboard section of the Settings. Newer versions have this in Settings for S Voice.

Also:

you have to go to settings , click ibliptv app and turn off background refresh

So you mean like the Google Now voice control? I really like that booooo.

Check S Voice.

I actually have S Voice disabled, since I liked google now better.

Did you find anything within Language and Keyboard or the ibliptv app/process?

dgh1981

I dont see anything relating to ibliptv in settings on looking at "all" applications. As for "Language and Input" settings, I see the following:

Google Voice Typing-Automatic

Speech>voice Input-Enhanced Google Service

Speech>Text to Speech Options-Google Text to Speech Engine

Honestly, it was a long shot. I see this audio-pausing as an issue on S3,4,5 and 6 devices.

Just an update. I found that my audio pausing issues were caused by the Xfinity Connect app, which has a VOIP feature for your phone phone. It must have interfered somehow with the audio subsystem. Uninstalled and all is well now.
