[Poweramp builds 906-911]

UPDATE on my music playing on top of music. I had tried I believe everything,

Spoke with Samsung a couple times direct.

Determined my Galaxy 21 Ultra had the issue. They authorized an exchange and 

Miraculously the Poweramp app worked 

I've used this app for years and the thought of not having it was terrible. 

Thanks for trying to help 

Sincerely 

Bob

So I did some testing, I was indeed able to reproduce this bug.

I picked MX player as the second player and looks like pause on permanent audio focus change is working.

Then I disabled Play alone toggle in MX player settings.

Pause on permanent audio focus change feature stopped working. Poweramp would no longer pause when MX player is playing, or vice versa.

As you can see, Play alone feature in MX player automatically stops Poweramp/other players as soon as the user plays something in MX player.

I tried this with another music player, it also behaves the same way.

My conclusion is that, pause on permanent audio focus settings is dependent on support of both players. Though I am not entirely sure how it works with Alexa, Max would probably able to help more.

Cool at least I'm not crazy

This is the combination of settings I'm trying it acts like for a second it may work than continues to play both audio sources

I play Amazon music as well through Alexa

Which I can do if I manually pause Poweramp however on my galaxy s9 I simple say alexa play my music poweamp will pause and alexa will play and when I say alexa stop Poweramp will begin. Perfect. The galaxy 21 will just continue playing Poweramp while alexa plays at the same time

 

I disabled duck it paused for about a second than continued to play ugh

Seem I've tried multiple setting it works with my galaxy 9 this a new galaxy21 ultra

And have duplicated my phone settings as well

Audio focus is on so that it should pause get a short pause than it starts again

I contacted both Samsung and Amazon

Suggest reboot lol nothing seems to help

I believe so I'm running beta now still having the same issue will check it out after work

 

In the past I would be listening to Poweramp and I could speak to alexa auto Poweramp would pause and I could listen to alexa. Now when I speak to echo auto

Poweramp and alexa talk on top of each other Poweramp does not pause

Not able to use my echo auto worked seamlessly before now they play music on top of each other galaxy 21 ultra I've used Poweramp for years a great program. 

I spoke with Samsung says its a bug in the app or echo auto however was fine with galaxy 9
