Audio cuts in and out when playing in the background

Issue #95 resolved
Former user created an issue

On a Nexus 5X, the audio is cutting in and out (like the tracks are pausing and playing again) when the myNoise app is in the background, with the screen on or off.

It makes no difference if I am in the high CPU mode or normal CPU mode.

Sound plays smoothly when app is in the foreground whether the screen is on or off.

    To add more information to the issue, happens on myNoise 1.2, on a Nexus 5X on Android 7.1.1

    Also audio cutting in and out in the background issue wasn't present on the previous beta version of myNoise.

    On a Galaxy Nexus on Android 4.4.4: Sounds plays perfectly normally and consistently with myNoise 1.2. No audio cutting in/out at all with the app in the background/foreground.

    I'm having a similar issue, except it's now also happened when the app is in the foreground as well.

    I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active running Android 5.0.

    Wanted to add that when the sound stops for me, I've noticed all sliders will drop to the bottom. 2017-03-11 16.18.38.png

    This is purely a guess (I'm just another user), but this sounds like it could be related to Android battery optimization. Setting apps to "not optimized" in the battery settings sometimes helps make apps behave better in the background.

    Nope, had the app battery optimization disabled in system settings when I was testing it out. Seems to be an issue with Android 7.1.1. My Galaxy S8+ on 7.0 does not have this issue on the latest version.
