HTC One X, Beats Audio/Sound Enhancer messes up notifications

[gurraj singh]

When playing music on my phone & I receive a notification, (whatsapp, mail, sms etc) the audio cracks up / goes silent / generally f's up.

I use the standard stock music player.

I use the phone to play music via normal (non-beats) headphones or I have the phone plugged in via 3.5 to my car / home audio set up. Same issue on all of them.

I disabled beats/sound enhancements & still have the same problem.

Anyone else suffer from this issue?

Any fixes for it?

(o2-uk released an update for the phone last week, which I updated to, had no effect on this issue)

If disabling beats doesn't fix the problem then why are you blaming beats in the title?

I get notifications all the time with beats on, and no problem. So it's probably that other app that is the problem.

For me the music mutes and resumes after the notification sound is done.

Likewise. Sounds like you might have an isolated issue

What other app? If you mean whatsapp/sms etc. I'm using the standard notifications.

So just to clarify when your notifications come thru. The music actually stops. Notification plays and then music resumes.

I was assuming it would be like other phones I've owned where the music volume just drops to low while the notification gets played.

Having the music stop for a notification is rather annoying.
