Bluetooth headphones automatically play music trouble
In the era of smartphones, wireless Bluetooth headsets have undoubtedly become an indispensable presence in daily life. They give us a no-holds-barred listening experience, but sometimes there are some minor headaches - such as when the phone starts playing music on its own after connecting a Bluetooth headset.
This kind of auto-play behavior may seem harmless, but it is very inappropriate for some special occasions. For example, when you put on headphones in the office and are ready to concentrate on work, but your mobile phone automatically plays music and disturbs your colleagues, or you wear headphones in public and accidentally play private audio content for others to hear, causing some embarrassing scenes.
The main reasons for this phenomenon are, firstly, that there are default settings for autoplay in the mobile phone system and music app, and secondly, that the Bluetooth headset will actively obtain playback control permissions after being connected. These are designed to provide a more convenient experience for users, but in some cases they are inappropriate.
From the system, the application and the headset all in one direction
The step to solve the problem of Bluetooth headphones autoplaying music is to check the audio-related options in your phone's system settings.
System settings adjusted
Most mobile phone systems have a "headphone remote cut song" or similar function, which is originally intended to make it easier for users to use the remote to control music playback after plugging in wired headphones. But when connected to Bluetooth headphones, the system will also automatically enable this feature, causing the music to play automatically.
We can go to the Bluetooth settings, find the connected Bluetooth headphones, and turn off the relevant options such as "Media Audio" or "Headphone remote cut song" to prohibit autoplay behavior from the system level. Mobile phones such as Huawei also provide a global setting option of "support Bluetooth control playback", and turning it off can also completely block the control of audio by Bluetooth devices.
App permission management
In addition to the system settings, there are also music player apps that will automatically get playback control permissions when connected to a Bluetooth device, which will trigger music to play automatically. We can enter the information interface of the application, revoke the Bluetooth control permission of the application, and also turn off suspicious functions such as "Background AutoPlay".
For the Fang Music app, you can also consider uninstalling or replacing other player software that doesn't assert itself.
Smart headset voice scenario
In response to the problem of autoplay, some new smart Bluetooth headsets also provide voice scene functions as a solution. Users can preset the "play music" scene, and customize voice commands and sensitive words, and when the headphones detect an external voice, the current audio playback will be automatically paused.
Find the best solution for smart hardware development
Three solutions
Through the above introduction, we can see that there are three main ways to solve the problem of automatic music playback of Bluetooth headsets: system setting adjustment, application permission management, and smart headset voice scenarios.
From the point of view of the difficulty of operation, adjusting the system settings is undoubtedly the easiest and most straightforward way. But its scope is limited to the system level and may not cover all cases. Application permission management needs to be set up one by one, and the operation is relatively cumbersome. Although the smart headset voice scenario has the best experience, it is limited by the degree of hardware support.
For most users, the first choice is to start with the system settings, and if the results are not satisfactory, then combine them with app permission management. For those who have purchased a new smart earbud that supports voice scene functions, you may wish to try this solution first to get the best experience.
The development trend of intelligent hardware in the future
The problem of Bluetooth headsets automatically playing music reflects the shortcomings of current smart hardware in terms of user experience optimization. Fortunately, with the continuous development of artificial intelligence and voice recognition technology, future intelligent hardware products will be able to be more humanized and intelligent.
Our future Bluetooth headsets will have more powerful voice interaction capabilities, which can accurately identify the user's voice commands and usage scenarios, and automatically adjust the playback strategy. The connection between the headset and smart terminals such as mobile phones and tablets will also be more seamless, and the audio control permissions will be automatically coordinated between the systems, eliminating similar autoplay troubles.
