Q10 stops playing sound

Here is the scenario:
I have a brand new Q10. I do not have many apps installed other than those that come with the phone. I can mention Skype, Webex and Tune In, as apps that use sound/video, but they are not frequently used.
My OS release is 10.1.0.4181.
I run my music player (the original one that comes with BB) and if either take a picture, receive a BBM video call or any phone call, later on my music player can no longer play anything. I can only solve that by rebooting, which is obviously very inconvenient.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

  • IPhone randomly stops playing sound out of iPod docks?

    I recently plugged my iPhone 4 iOS6.0.1 (the new update recently put out by apple) and it has stopped playing sound out of any iPod dock I plug it into.
    It plays sound normally out of the speakers and charges while on the dock. Has anyone had any problems similar and any solutions?
    Also I have restored my whole iPhone this morning and it still has the same problem. My husband doesn't have this problem and he has the iPhone 3.
    Is this a bug with the new iOS6.0.1 and is Apple going to put out a new update anytime soon to fix it? Or do I need to send my phone away.
    Thank you.

    It can't be 3 years old since the 5G iPod was first introduced in Oct 2012
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • For certain songs on my iPhone 4s with iOS7 some songs stop playing audio but continue playing the song almost as if it were muted. Where can I fix this? Say "Stronger" by Kanye West stops playing sound after 2:25 but it is 5 minutes long.

    Basically it is just like it says. Certain songs stop playing sound after a certain point in the song but the song continues playing and ticking down like it normally would. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Hi I found the answer from another post. So far everything is working find. I been trying to fix this since march,

    Deleting the application rarely solves anything on Macs. A better starting point is normally to delete the preference file for the application (in Users/~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist) or see if you have the same problem in another user account on the computer.

  • HT201401 Hi my 4s has all of a sudden stopped playing sound.

    Hi my 4s has all of a sudden stopped playing sound. I have a ringtone but no sound for music/movies etc. tried turning on and of and letting bat go flat then recharging. Sound came back for a while then went again. I noticed this started soon after I upgraded to 5.1.1 . Ive also looked at the error reports the phone generates for apple and there are a few memory low notes.  Any help would be appreciated.

    We have a WHOLE discussion about the issue over here:
    Re: IOS 5.1.1. update bug (Volume Control)
    So far Apple is not doing anything to fix the bug with 5.1.1 It's really annoying!

  • My iPad 3 iOS 8.3 suddenly stopped playing sound on its speakers while on Spotify. Volume max. Side switch not on mute. Tried rebooting thrice. Sounds won't work on other apps. Works with earpods.

    My iPad 3 iOS 8.3 suddenly stopped playing sound on its speakers while I was listening on Spotify. Volume was maxxed out. Side switch not on mute. Tried rebooting thrice. Sounds won't work on other apps (Soundcloud, NPR, Clash of Clans). There are sounds when I attached my earpods. I tried the switch to mono solution on the other threads, didn't help either.
    My iPad is generally muted because of classes, but when I un-mute it it works fine. It just stopped after one song, and now I can't get it to work. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    Hi!
    I've the same issue after updating to iOS 8.3. on iPad 3.
    sound is working properly only with headphones attached.
    when I tap on AirPlay button it says "Docking connector" while it should "iPad"
    when i play with sound settings and try to change e.g. some alert sounds, sound is played and volume slider in control center magically appears.
    any other app can't play sound.
    is there any fix for that?
    Thanks

  • IPod stopped playing sound out of speakers

    I have an iPod touch 5th Gen which is around 3 years old and today it suddenly stopped playing sound out of the speakers. If i put headphones in sound plays fine out of them but as soon as I take them out no sound comes out even if there is something playing.
    The speakers were working fine around 20-30 minutes before I realized they weren't working and my iPod has been doing nothing but sitting on my desk in that time. I tried restarting my iPod but this didn't fix the issue.

  • HDMI Stopped playing sound through tv?

    I've been using my HDMI 12 months and its aways worked perfectly but today, it stopped playing sound through the tv. I have gone onto the sound play back options as suggested on this sight but the HDMI option isn't showing and when I go on the speakers and headphones option it won't let me click the set default option. I haven't done anything new to my lap top, so not sure why its all of a sudden stopped working. Any advice on how I can get the sound back ?

    Nope  not yet. I have looked at other simular questions on here and their solutions won't work for me. only put it up today so fingers crossed, some one with have a answer. 

  • After being open for a while (with several tabs) Firefox becomes generally unresponsive and stops playing sound - videos will still play, but no sound.

    This problem has only begun happening recently. I commonly keep my Firefox open overnight with websites like rainymood.com or grooveshark.com playing, as well as several other tabs including but not limited to Facebook, Reddit, and YouTube. Sometimes, after several hours/days of not restarting Firefox or my computer, Firefox begins to become unresponsive - that is to say, pages take a long time to load, opening new tabs is difficult for the browser, and videos will take up to 30 seconds to begin playing. In addition to this, sound will stop playing; if I begin a YouTube video, after the initial period of excessive loading, the video will play, but without any audio. Also, websites such as rainymood.com and grooveshark, even Facebook, will stop making sound.
    Note that this is different from a flash plugin crash - when flash crashes, both audio and video become inaccessible and a simple refresh or restart of Firefox will solve the problem. But what is happening here is different; if I refresh the tab, nothing changes, and even if I restart Firefox, it opens again the same way until I restart my computer completely.
    Also of note: I have had, in the past, this same thing happen but rainymood.com continued playing, however no other tabs would make sound. The problem is sporadic and I'm not sure where to begin. Also, sometimes this is only a Firefox-specific problem, meaning other programs on my computer can make sounds, but sometimes this problem makes my entire computer stop making sounds, except for Ventrilo, which works but is also unresponsive at first.

    You can also try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • My macbook pro has stop playing sounds

    I have a relatively new macbook pro and the sound isn't working there is no supposed "red light" problem that most seemed to have, the volume icon shows at full and nothing plays, I went into system preferences under sound to check if everything was alright and it was.. my mac is only less than month and hasn't been dropped or damaged in any way...? any help

    try to reset the SMC
    - turn the computer off and make sure the power is plugged in
    - then on the left side of the keyboard, hold down the shift, control, and option keys
    - while they are held down, press the power button.
    - the computer should not turn on if this is performed correctly.
    - after that, let go of everything and turn the computer back on
    - also, what applications are you trying to play sound through? Make sure the sound within the app or player is turned up

  • Why did my mac stop playing sound?

    Anybody know why my laptop isn't playing sound anymore? I have check the audio in settings and everything looks normal minus the master volume. It won't let me touch that and adjust it...ideas?

    What version of OS X are you running? Which MacBook Pro model do you have (e.g., 15" late 2011)?
    Have you tried going to System Preferences>Sound and selecting your internal speakers for output? Can you get sound by using headphones?
    Just need some more information.

  • Flash stops playing sounds, then constant crashing.

    So this only started happening recently and the only thing I can think of that I have recently done is update my Adobe Flash (directly from their website) and Firefox auto updates itself.
    I'll be watching a Twitch steam, browsing YouTube or Tumblr and I'll try and play a video off youtube/tumblr and it'll play with no sound though the Twitch stream I'm watching will still be making sound. So I'll close the browser, reopen the browser, head to youtube, no sound on any videos, nothing from tumblr, nothing from twitch, flash videos won't play beyond the first frame. Close browser, reopen. Constant Flash crashes.
    Only way to remedy this is to reboot entire computer.
    Help?

  • My apple tv was previously and now all of the sudden stopped playing sound from my macbook air via airplay

    I was using airplay to stream from my macbook air on my tv via apple tv and when i paused the sound stopped and now will not resume.  I have reset both and both are fully updated. Please help

    Dowload the program BEAMER, its far superior to AIRPLAY, theres a free 30 day trial. See if it works on that. Beamer is the best app for wifi of VIDS to your AppleTV
    http://beamer-app.com/
    also, try a diff VID format, AIRPLAY doesn’t support all VID formats (beamer does however).
    I cant live without beamer, you can multitask on your Mac  WHILE beaming high-def to your Apple TV, ….Airplay wont do that reliably.

  • My DVD player stopped playing sound. How to  fix it?

    I can't get sound on DVDs in my DVD Player.
    Any suggestions how to fix it? The picture is fine but no sound on any DVD.

    You can try a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    *C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 17.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • My Adobe Flash Player stops playing sound in the middle of playing a disk or online news report.

    The screen comes up and says Flash Player 5.0 has stopped do you wish to close?

    Flash Player 5 was released in August 2000.  Are you sure that's accurate?  You're missing about 15 years of fixes and features.
