I'm not having bad battery issues or anything. But thought I would use the wakelock to explore and try learn about my device.
Can anyone explain why I have a sound thing waking my cpu?
I have no music on the device. So what's causing it or is it normal?

Were you watching videos, or playing games, or did you put a micro SD card in? Anything like that could cause that process to run.

Had a sd card in since new 3 weeks ago.
I'm no video other than youtube the other day.
I did buy a s view case yesterday and bumped play on the stock app. Only song I have is that samsung demo song. I stopped it straight away and held the home button and cleared the program from the list.
That's the only stuff I can think off.

Although would tune in radio use that process?
Although I have done a restart since then. (I turn my phone off when I work as it sits in my car all day.)

Yes, music and radio would probably start it, but a reboot should have stopped it. :/

Well I can't complain about this usage. Line at 70% shows a restart when I installed wakelock app today to get a measurement.
I'm not a super heavy user. But 2 phone calls a few texts and a bit of browsing meant I still have 51% battery after 15 hrs since last charge 😊

The audio_out2 wakelock is on always when the phone sends audio out, I think, and sometimes it just keeps going. I don't either see it as a huge battery killer but restarting your phone stops the wakelock.
