Poweramp lowers volume after being paused via bluetooth

Recommended Posts

This is a new bug, presumably from Poweramp because I haven't had any OS updates recently. In short, when you pause Poweramp using a bluetooth controller (such as on bluetooth headphones or on a car dashboard), when it is unpaused, the volume drops, necessitating you turning the phone volume up again after every pause.

Poweramp build number: build-893-arm64-play [893004-dd1054bc]  Full version  64bit
Your device model: Xiaomi MiA1
Your Android version: 9
Your custom ROM name/version (if you're on custom ROM): n/a
Steps to reproduce: Pause Poweramp with a bluetooth controller (eg. on headphones or car dashboard).

@evh5150ni lowers how exactly? You can see media volume changing? Preamp changing? Nothing changing but perceived volume is lower?

When I unpause Poweramp, the volume on the device has been significantly lowered automatically.

@evh5150ni You haven't answered any of Max's questions. Do you see a volume control-pane slider setting change, and if so which ones, or does it just "sound" quieter than before?

When I unpause Poweramp through a Bluetooth device (eg. my car or my headphones) the volume audibly and significantly lowers. When I then check my phone, I can see that the volume slider has lowered. So something is triggering it to lower. This is a problem that I've never had before.

Poweramp is the only app I have used in the same circumstances (ie. In the car) that has this issue, and it's a fairly new problem. YouTube, Spotify, AntennaPod etc are able to pause and restart without the volume changing on the device.

In my galaxy m30, I paired my home teacher and my Bluetooth headset, I listen to them at different volume level. So if I reconnect to any of these, Poweramp reduce or increase to the last volume level it was using  before disconnection, so if this is what is happening, then it is normal, but if it happens instantly after pause, then check if you have something like Tasker or any other app that triggers this action.

Actually, thinking about it, yes I think a feature was added fairly recently to resume BT volume levels on reconnection? Could be a conflict in that method?

This is an immediate thing: a pause then an unpause across 10 seconds on a car bluetooth system. I'm not running anything like Tasker or IFTTT.

I spent some time with this error this week and discovered it is because I had "Keep Notification" unticked. 

Hopefully this helps someone in the future.
