Hey all,
Not sure if this has been mentioned or not but I was playing around a little and noticed that some sounds (sytem sounds, ringtones, notifications) do not go through the headset when headphones are plugged in.
Turns out if you plug in a headset with the microphone all works fine.
Bummer as most headsets with mic are not so good and this doesn't really help when hooking up to the car.

Anyone else hear an audible "pop" when music is started/stopped and the phone is hooked to external speakers? Doesn't occur with headphone but has happened with a set of powered speakers and my car's line-in.
I do, I'm annoyed by it. I have no idea why it does that.
If you look on alogcat you can see that its turning the audio device on/off to save power.

Bought a Moto S10-HD headset, and it sounds great, but I noticed that when I get notifications, my music pauses like normal, but the notification sound gets played on the phone, and it's not passed along to the headset. Music resumes as normal after the notification. That doesn't happen when using the wired headphones, but if I'm using a bluetooth headset and I leave my phone in the other room, the only way I'll know if I get a notification will be the music pausing.
Any ideas?
It does that to me with my Car stereo when its hooked up via BT. It isn't really an issue for me since I am never far enough away from my phone where i don't hear the notification coming from the phone. I never thought about why it does this, but since you brought it up, I would love to know as well.
A quick google search shows that this is apparently the holy grail for bluetooth headphone users. However, I think the same thing happens with wired headphones as well.
I too, would like to know why and have it solved.
My stock wired headphones play the notification tone fine.
While I'm here, another thing I noticed is the system sounds that are played over bluetooth are somewhat quiet compared to music. That also doesn't happen on the wired headphones.
Hi
Yesterday I wanted to look at a movie on my tab;
I plugged a headset on the tab, and started to play the movie.
The curious thing is that the sound came both from the tab speakers and in the headphones.
How could I do to have the sound ONLY on the headphones ?
Thanks
Nico
The Tab should simply recognize the jack has been plugged in, and deliver sound only to the headphones.
Is it playing on BOTH the headphones and speakers, or just the speakers?
As a simple test, check if you get the same problem using a different set of headphones.
I've had a similar experience a few times, where the sound will play out of both the speakers and the headphones (annoying those sitting next to me on planes). What worked for me was simply unplugging the headphones and then plugging them back in again, until you see a small headphone icon on your status bar. Once you see that icon, you can be fairly certain the sound is only coming out of the 'phones.
I know it's a simple remedy, and you have probably tried it already, but that's what worked for me.
I forget what the app is but there is an app in the market that will solve this problem if the unplug and replug method doesn't work for you.
HI, I don't want any notifications or ringtones to play through the back speaker of my S4 when the headphones are plugged in. I want to ONLY hear those sounds in my headphones. Completely muting the phone doesn't work because then obviously I wouldn't hear anything in the headphones either.
So, is it possible to do this on the GT-i9505 ?
My old Samsung Galaxy Spica did this and I really miss that "feature".
That's weird yours plays thru the rear speaker mine plays everything thru the headphones when connected
HA! this is a hugeass issue on every android I've owned. im assuming you're using poweramp or something right? the stock player pauses the song to play it thru the headphones which is probably why that dude up ^^ doesn't get that.
anyways some kernels fix this, namely Boeffla Sound on the sgs3. sadly I've seen no fix on the s4. SO! , here's what your can do; in your music player (power amp, etc), under audio settings, turn on Settings>Audio>Audio Focus> and tick 'Short Audio Focus Changes', this will pause your music on notifications.
ORRRRR a far better solution is when you plug in your 3.5mm jack headphones (cause this shii* doesn't happen on bluetooth), you can just pull down your notification bar and tap over to vibrate mode. then you'll hear notifications IN YOUR HEADPHONES a little quieter but still noticeably behind your music, and your music won't pause or mute or anything.

When I use my Bose QC15 headphones with my phone, if I launch an app or press one of the nav keys, I hear a clicking sound through the headphones, like it is turning off and on almost.. I know that sounds odd, but I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and has a possible solution?
Also, when audio is playing this noise stops. It is only when there is no audio playing.
Thanks.
Hi, I'm experiencing the same thing. I bought earphones by Aukey on Amazon and they were doing this clicking that got progressively worse as the call went on. I now bought a pair of Gwee buds. Same problem. Both sound fine on regular audio video and on other phones...

I can report the same problem as well. I have a pair of RHA T20, and I can hear the clicking sound whenever I enable "reverberation" in Viper4Android. Maybe it's your sound setting?
Odds enough, it happens only one the ear that has the Mic attached to it on the Green buds. I'll try the aukeys to compare. I check the sound settings and get back to you too

6P noise also
I use my 6P in my car for navigation and occasional music. I use a cable to connect from the headphone jack to the aux in on the car's sound system. Very often, but not always, I get what sounds to me like cross over noise, playing on both channels. Rhythmic ticks and taps, some buzzes and so forth. I believe it to be digital noise, bleeding in from god knows where. It corresponds to touchscreen activity, and only occurs when the 12v adapted power supply is plugged into the phone. Unplug the USBc and all is quiet, except for what is supposed to be coming through.
I've searched quite a bit and this thread is the closest I've found to my experience. Any ideas?
