Music app plays the next track silently

Regain your privacy! Adopt /e/OS the deGoogled mobile OS and online services

There have already been a few similar threads on this topic; see here:

But none of them offered a solution, so I’m starting a new one.
The device is a Pixel 7
/e/ OS version is 3.6-a15-20260314594290-community-panther

The problem is this: When the Music app plays an album, only the first track can be heard. The next one is muted. Sound only returns when you pause briefly or click on the timeline.

The problem also occurs in the vanilla Music app.
The formats being played are MP3.

Does anyone have any idea how this might be fixed? Thanks in advance!

PS: I was nor shure in which category this issue fits

Honestly, I found it was simpler to find another FOSS music player and roll with that instead. In the end, I selected Metro (io.github.muntashirakon.Music) which is GPL 3.0. Works well.

It was never fixed. For me it’s the same on linesgeos too so it’s not likely that eOS can fix it. Every other music app works fine but I think as my files are MP3 then that’s the problem.

Thanks, works really good.

Thanks for the hint. When I have time, I will look on lineage forums , too.:upside_down_face:

You can but I don’t think they fixed it. Also when CalyxOS used to build for my phone.

can anyone who is affected and has a community build(!) to have adb root test the workaround described in the comments by luk?

the linked change was merged.

merged for that device (polaris). At least the OP has a panther .. and as I read that version string, “community”! adb root let’s go

Sorry, I cannot test this, the device is my partners daily driver and I can rarely access it. I was just glad I could use the workaround.:upside_down_face:

So thanks to everybody here, I will mark this thread as solved.
