Audio distortion is back

[puch96]

So the audio distortion issue that was addressed in the Dec update is now back ( I think after the Feb update)
I'm talking about the low volume audio distortion that was noticed particularly on some YouTube videos.

The funny thing now is that when I hear the distortion, I press pause, then play again and it goes away. The audio also seems to change as well after hitting pause then play (reducing low frequencies and somewhat boosting higher ones). This was the countermeasure from the Dec patch, but something got screwed up since then.
Quite anoying. Not only YouTube, but I notice it on Google Play music as well as games.

quick update. after a restart, it seems to solve the issue. definitely software related.

Let us know if it was a one time occurrence or if the issue comes back.

Update: At least I'm not alone. I've seen Reddit post also noting the distortion issue came back after the Feb 2019 update.
It's a shame because it makes the phone sound awful. Google... FIX THIS!
