[BUG] Loud noise when toggling equalizer
Expected Behavior
Smooth transition.
Current Behavior
When toggling off the equalizer, a short but loud noise can be heard. This issue occurs consistently regardless of the audio file being played. I'm not sure if it's an Android 15 / GrapheneOS specific problem as it seems to happen only while using certain players like this one and Metro, but not with Auxio.
Steps to Reproduce
- Play any song
- Toggle the equalizer

don't forget to unmute the video
Possible Solution
Compare the implementation of the equalizer in other FOSS players.
hmmm it might be quite tricky to fix that, i would suggest not relying on player specific equalizer and use more general option like poweramp equalizer, this way u can have it on always and avoid such issues
as for this im not sure if it would be possible to debug this.. so ya
a simple solution is to pause the playback and resume after equalizer is enabled, i remember i left this part for users to do since it wasnt likely to encounter the glitch
I see.
pause the playback and resume after equalizer is enabled
Would it be viable to add an option in settings that does it automatically in case someone else will encounter the issue?
an option to "attempt fix" something? ☠️ nah either we fix or apply the workaround directly
