Desktop: Music not playing smoothly through speakers

I'm having the same problem.  The songs play in order, no problem.  When Pandora plays, it sounds like when the old vinyl skipped.  To make sure it wasn't my speakers, I played iTunes and other media, and the sound is fine.  It's definitely Pandora.  (I have the premium subscription and I use FireFox.)  What's happening and  how is it resolved?

Hey, @sarah12601.

I moved your post over to the Desktop board to keep the community organized.

  • Does this happen with the same exact track(s) each time?
  • Or, is it any track during your listening sessions?
  • Are you using any type of bluetooth speaker, or the speakers on your computer?

Would you mind trying out these steps?

Let me know if this helps!

The steps you refer to are if you're using a firefox browser.  I am using the pandora app on my phone and smart tv.  There always seems to be a song, not all mind you but always seems to be a skip like using an old vinyl record.  Its frustrating to an avid listener.  I've considered it a trade off for convivence vs setting up my own play lists on my own storage.  Even still this is a pay service.  Like bring you BB ribs and no napkins,  its doable but not quite what you expect for a paid service.

I’m having this issues when trying to play from my phone to my Bluetooth car speaker. Not the same songs; and it has started doing this weird thing where it plays the song quicker (similar to playing a record at a faster speed). Extremely annoying. I have an IPhone

I’m having a damning similar issue, I’m using the app and I’m playing the device through the CD/Aux from an Iphone. I do this all the time with YouTube just fine but pandora sounds all broken up an electronic interruptions. Very annoying if you are trying to listen to Death Metal. (It’s not the death metal)
