Vee Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I have Poweramp that was force stopped and did not open it in my phone. I connect my phone Bluetooth with my car and when it connected Poweramp just auto start the app and play the audio. I did not ask to do that, I just want to connected the Bluetooth and choose the music player app myself. (because Poweramp did not support single play audio file).

andrewilley Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Settings > Headset/Bluetooth > Resume on Bluetooth (disable). If it still happens with that disabled, it's probably because the car headunit is sending a Play command when it connects - check Settings > Headset/Bluetooth > Last Processed Commands to see what it has sent.

Vee Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 It is already disabled. Almost everything about Bluetooth was disabled. This never happens before (as I remember, until last week). I was just reset everything about Poweramp so, I cannot see any command now. I'll try again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 You need to look at the Commands list a short while after connecting, to see what has just been sent. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I force stopped Poweramp + Full version unlocker. Clear all opened apps. Connect smart phone with car bluetooth > push on aux button (to switch to bluetooth audio). What happened before is nothing happen, I can open music player of my choice (which is supported single play one track and end). 👍 What happened now is Poweramp open itself and I have to close it then I can control car audio with my app. 👎 👎 👎 Resume on Bluetooth was disabled but it does not help.

NewZed Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Why has this problem never been addressed? Auto-start on Bluetooth us completely ignored. Same result whether on or off it will always auto-start playing on my car stereo system. Beyond annoying 🤬. It's now 2021!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are options to control this action in Settings > Headset/Bluetooth. However sometimes the external headset or car stereo is the culprit, issuing a MEDIA_PLAY (or MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE) event when it connects, which PA responds correctly to. To see if this is the case for you, after this issue occurs take a look at Settings > Headset/Bluetooth > Last Processed Commands and post the results here.

Drey Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 @andrewilley I'm experiencing the same issue as above. Whenever I turn on my car the radio connects vua Bluetooth and automatically opens PA and resumes my last played song. I don't want this. I've read your other forum responses to people with that same issue. I've disabled and renabled all those settings. No change. I'm wondering if the culprit is my stereo unit doing this. You mentuoned the way to find that out was to go to: Settings > Headset/Bluetooth > Last Processed Commands and post the results here. Here are my results.

andrewilley Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 There seem to be a lot of events occurring during connection which @maxmp would be able to diagnose better then me, but could you confirm that you did not press the Play button at the following point, as the log is saying that PA received a Play comment from the Bluetooth device: 17:16:07.849 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY ACTION_DOWN name=Virtual source=0x0 sources=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=90957230 sourcePak=com.android.bluetooth isAvrcp flags=0x0 playerState=2 ================== 17:16:07.881 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY ACTION_UP name=Virtual source=0x0 sources=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=90957273 sourcePak=com.android.bluetooth isAvrcp flags=0x0 playerState=2 Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugeblizzard Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I've found the culprit that caused the same issue with me. It was Poweramp Equalizer app which had the same setting turned on. I just turned it off and now everything is normal. Although, I don't see the same app as the culprit in the log posted above by others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd been wondering why my Android Auto system had recently started exhibiting this auto-starting issue too, and when I checked the commands log I noticed a MEDIA_PLAY button event was being issued about 15 seconds after everything else had connected, but it was assigned from com.maxmpz.equalizer : 18:28:55.062 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY ACTION_DOWN name=Virtual source=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=182391645 sourcePak=com.maxmpz.equalizer flags=0x540 playerState=2 ================== 18:28:55.075 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY ACTION_UP name=Virtual source=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=182391648 sourcePak=com.maxmpz.equalizer flags=0x540 playerState=2 I checked the stand-alone PA-EQ app, and it had indeed activated this feature for some reason - and the fact that the main EQ functionality is disabled does not seem to prevent the auto-play mode from triggering. If this has started affecting anyone else, go into the Poweramp Equalizer app and in Settings > Utils you should turn OFF these top two items: Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roeezzz Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I'm still having this issue. I'm on Pixel 7 with Sony xm4's. I have both options on both apps (player and eq) turned off. I get the following commands (though I don't really know how to read them), and I don't press anything when I connecg the headphones. It happens only with Poweramp so I doubt it's somethin my headphones are sending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 @roeezzz Poweramp is apparently receiving a button-press event KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY via Android, which it is responding correctly to. Looks like it's coming from com.android.nfc, though I don't know why the NFC service would be doing that. Do you have an NFC management app set to trigger on BT connection for some reason? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roeezzz Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I use nfc to connect the headphones to my phone. The xm4's have a feature for that. Does it mean it's something with the headphones? Because it only happens with Poweramp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 It means something in the NFC system that you are using is sending a KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY event to tell the current media software to start playing (a BUTTON_DOWN instance followed a few milliseconds later by a BUTTON_UP - so a simulation of a press and release interaction). Poweramp is correctly responding to that command by starting playback. You could prevent that from happening by disabling PA Settings=>Headset/Bluetooth=>Respond to Buttons, but that would mean you would not be able to use any other button functionality that the headset might offer either. @maxmp The button event does seem to be arriving very soon after the remote device has connected, I thought such commands were meant to be ignored for the first few seconds? Is it perhaps the fact that it is coming from the NFC module rather than from the headset directly that could be causing this? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mOuStAcHe_BR Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 on ANDROID AUTO OPTIONS/CONFIGS, just disable "START/PLAY MUSIC AUTOMATICALLY". Aparently my problem is solved. PS: this was happpening even when headphones were connected in the usb port, and bluetooth devices too. MOTO EDGE 20 PRO and MOTO EDGE 30 ULTRA here. I hope it helps anyone else.

andrewilley Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 @mOuStAcHe_BR Have a look in Settings=>Headset/Bluetooth=>Last Processed Commands to see if a KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY or KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE event is being issued by the BT device (often Android Auto sends its media and commands via Bluetooth, even when a USB cable is plugged in). You can stop PA responding to that for testing purposes using the Button options in the same menu. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre Andre, now I don't know what prevents the autoplay command but right now the issue seems to be there again. The button option is still enabled as I need to keep the car media controls functional. What I did was install greenefy, change this settings on development options on Android 12. The only action that prevents the issue is killing/force stop PA on Android.

mirko77 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) @mOuStAcHe_BR Hi, if you are still having the issue, you need an app like Tasker to stop the playback. Disabling the button controls in Poweramp works in some cars, but then you lose the media keys on your steering wheel for example (next/prev) or the touch display so not the best solution. To get the best of both worlds, an app like Tasker can intercept the play media request from the car. I followed this video a few hours ago and it worked. I struggled with this issue for a long time as well. @andrewilley I wonder if the Tasker approach can be implemented in Poweramp directly so we will not need a third-party app. Anyway, it works, so it is just a "could be nice to have" thing.

eng3 Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 I am having this issue too. I even tried turning off "respond to buttons" and the app seems to start itself and start playing. No other media I have did this most apps have an option to ignore this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 @eng3 What do you see in Settings=>Headset Bluetooth=>Last Processed Commands? Make sure auto-resume is not enabled in Settings=>Audio=>Audio Focus. If you have the Poweramp Equalizer app installed too, also check to see that it does not have auto-resume enabled in its Settings=>Utils menu. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eng3 Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 I see the PlayerService RESUME command and the log. All the bluetooth menu options except (pause on disconnect) are disabled. In Audio Focus, All are disabled (except short audio focus change/calls and permanent audio focus change) In Equalizer, all options are disabled in the Utils menu Does "resume on bluetooth" mean Poweramp will start playing on connect? or does disabling mean it will actively ignore requests right after connecting? I assume it is the former. Many cars try to autoresume. It's to the point that most apps seems to have a "ignore resume on connect" option. I had another post where I was noting the similar behavior when I accidentally press the button on my earbud. Unless another app is in actively in the foreground, somehow Poweramp will get launched and start playing. I wish there were options to ignore bluetooth press unless app is in foreground or notification is active. Unfortunately, this and only this app starts itself even when I have "respond to buttons" unchecked. Speaking of equalizer, I ask a question (in another thread two weeks ago) but never got a response. In regular Poweramp, I can set equalizer settings based on device. How do I do this in equalizer? Basically I want to do the same but for other music apps, not just Poweramp. Also, if I have Poweramp eq settings and Poweramp equalizer, how do I know which is used when playing Poweramp?

eng3 Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 2 hours ago, andrewilley said: Correct, it should mean playback resumes automatically when a BT device connects (without needing any commands sent from the BT device). Andre Thus, eventhough it is disabled, I don't think it has anything to do with the described problem (bluetooth device automatically trying to play/resume audio on connect). Many others seem to have this issue, I know your response is that Poweramp is just responding to bluetooth commands. I don't know why it causes Poweramp to come back from the dead and start playing. Maybe because the signal tries all my media apps and because all of my other apps have an option to ignore this, it settles on your app which does not have the option. I don't know why it plays eventhough I have "respond to buttons" turned off. Regardless, it's still and issue. Anyways, I'll again propose a feature/option to ignore bluetooth unless notification is active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
