Pausing for phone calls
-
I have the setting to pause for interruptions active. So I like that if I’m listening to a podcast and then get/make a call, it pauses the podcast and resumes immediately after the call.
What I do not like is when I pause a podcast and then make a call, when I’m done with the phone call, it resumes playing the podcast. I don’t want it to do that. Is there a way to prevent just that?

Hi there! Could you tell me more about this error? And which type of device is being used? Once we have more information we can investigate further.
Device:
OS:
App version:- Are you connected to any Bluetooth device?
- Do you use trim silence?
- Is the episode downloaded or being streamed?
- How it was paused? (For example, paused in App or from a widget or lock screen.)

Thanks for the additional information. After checking further, this sounds like a bug related to the playback feature. I’ve reported this to our team so they can investigate further. We will post here with any updates.

@reblazer Our developers are asking for logs to help us investigate this further, especially since you’re experiencing the issue in a car. For context, there can often be issues with the car’s Bluetooth sending additional media events like play and pause to apps.
Please keep an eye out for my email where I’ll be requesting the logs. Thank you!

I replied to your email with logs. ✔️
While replicating this, I bumped into another, but seemingly related issue. I had a podcast playing, made a call, and then when I hung up, the podcast began playing (as it should have) but only for about 1-2 seconds – then it pauased on its own – when this time, it should have continued playing. The logs include thta replication, as well.
