ICS walkman: Volume sudden change

Wed, 27 Jun 2012 04:22:35 GMT

After upgrading to ICS, the deafault music player become walkman. Regardless of lots of crash when opening walkman and many times of reboots, there is an annoying problem.

When I use Walkman to listen music (many formats have been tried: mp3, flac, ape), the sound volume will turn down after my screen is off for awhile. But when I turn the screen on again, the sound volume back to normal.

I have tried to change display settings, sound settings, Walkman settings, none of these seems related to this problem. Of cause I also tried reboot many times but this problem still exists.

Also, I am sure it's nothing wrong with my earphone since it worked fine before upgrade and it still works fine with Neutron music player and any apps with sound well till now.

I would like to know if anyone also have experienced this problem too?

Could it be solved by changing some settings or it's a bug?

Many thanks!

repair your phone with SUS and don't install any app, uninstall mcafee and see if you still have the same problem
