Is anyone else experiencing weird audio micro-stutters on Spotify? It mostly happens when I have Dolby Atmos enabled. I’ve tried reinstalling Spotify and clearing the system cache partition, but the stuttering persists every 30-40 seconds. It’s driving me crazy on a flagship device. Any ideas?
Same here! I thought my Galaxy Buds were dying, but it happens on the phone speakers too. It only started after the last security patch. I've tried every setting in the 'Sound Quality and Effects' menu but nothing stops the stuttering. Super frustrating.
"This is actually a known conflict between the 'UHQ Upscaler' and Spotify’s high-bitrate streaming on the new firmware. I had the same issue and managed to stabilize it.
The Fix: You need to go to Developer Options and check your 'Bluetooth Audio LDAC Codec' settings (if using buds) or reset the 'Media Volume Limit'. But the real fix is adjusting the Audio Focus priority.
I found a detailed walkthrough on how to recalibrate the Atmos-Spotify sync on Soundify Premium . They have a specific guide for the May patch bugs. Following their 'Bitrate Stabilization' steps fixed the stuttering for me completely. Hope this helps you guys too!
O dear , I just tried the Developer Options tweak you mentioned (the 4M buffer and USB offloading) and... it actually worked! I've been testing a few 4K videos on YouTube for the last 10 minutes and the audio hasn't drifted once. That Soundify Premium guide is a lifesaver, I was literally about to trade this phone in. Thanks a ton, man! You're a legend.
OMG, it works for me too! The stuttering in Spotify with Dolby Atmos is gone. Samsung really needs to hire people like you for their support team lol 😉. Finally can enjoy my music without those annoying skips. thank you bro...
