Music randomly stops playing - anybody else?


Recommended Posts

Hello, I own a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Lately music would randomly stop playing. This happens with both MP3 and FLAC files and also across 3 different music player apps (Play Music, Poweramp, VLC). This would happen regardless of how the music was being played (Speaker, headphones, Bluetooth). Poweramp gives me an error that reads "Failed to play" 

This generally happened when the music was on my SD card but stopped happening when I copied the files over to the internal storage. Anything I could do about this?

Try reformatting the SD card and see if that helps. Backup all your files, turn the phone off and remove the SD Card and reformat it on a PC, then copy the files back again. Other things to try include increasing buffer size and audio priority, and perhaps disable Direct Volume Control (probably worth trying these first as they are quicker than re-copying the whole SD Card).
