Wait, you haven't already done this? Like their overlords (SiriusXM), they simply don't care anymore, this threads age and length is all the proof we need of that fact.

Hi @RDH and @dandavis00, do either of you use Android Auto?

Year: 2016 Make: Chevrolet Model: Corvette z06 Trim/stereo upgrade option: 2LZ Does this vehicle cause the problem: YES Year: 2020 Make: Chevrolet Model: Silverado/1500 Trim/stereo upgrade option: LT Trail Boss Does this vehicle cause the problem: NO

As I mentioned in the original post, this happens to me ONLY after having used Android Auto in my car and not in my truck, so maybe instead of collecting useless information about phones/network/versions/etc that don't appear to have any correlation, we can all provide the following which DOES seem to have some correlation to the problem. If you experience this problem only after using Android Auto could provide the following? (add extra copies of the questions for multiple vehicles): Year: Make: Model: Trim/stereo upgrade option: Does this vehicle cause the problem:

I bought a new phone so that I would stop having this problem since the admins here were so confident that it's related to the persons phone/carrier/zodiac sign. I know this will blow your minds, but would you believe I'm still having the problem?! Model: Pixel 5 Carrier: Verizon Wireless Android version (Settings > About Phone): 11 Build number (Settings > About Phone): RD1A.200810.022.A4 Android Security Patch Level, if noted on your device (Settings > About Phone): Oct 5 2020 Pandora version: 2010.1 (ANDROID-TUNER 20101015)

So you opened a support ticket? How long is the turnaround on those tickets? I usually have to have mine closed in 10 days or less (even for low priority tickets) at my job, I guess the Pandora devs are given a little more leeway?

DracoDan · ‎10-06-2020

Still having the problem. At this point I don't know why you are asking people what phone/carrier/etc they have, the only thing everyone has in common is Pandora. I'm getting the suspicion that you guys can't fix this without changing some other functionality that you see as a market advantage (like the way you make it almost impossible to exit Pandora on mobile devices).

The sound was my default notification sound and I had thought it was from an unrelated notification but I couldn't find a notification (email, text, hangouts etc) that matched the time the music started, so maybe it's Pandora actually making the notification sound. No other bluetooth devices are connected.

DracoDan · ‎09-25-2020

Done, it took right at 10 minutes, started immediately after I got a notification (the notification sound and the start of Pandora playing are nearly simultaneous).

DracoDan · ‎09-25-2020

Yes, the problem still exists. My apps update automatically but just to be sure I checked and confirmed I was on 2009.1 then went through the steps recreate the problem. One thing I want to retract from my original post, it doesn't always start playing after an alert sound (although that seems to be a very common trigger). This time it started approximately 12 minutes after leaving my car while sitting on my desk.

Model: Pixel 2 XL, Pixel XL, Nexus 6 Carrier: Verizon Android version (Settings > About Phone): The latest for the past 4 years since I started using Pandora... Pandora version: Yep, always the latest How to reproduce: 1. Use Android Auto in Corvette (2016) 2. Turn off and exit car 3. Pandora starts playing immediately after my phone makes any sounds (such as notifications), no matter how long it has been. This happens 100% of the time when I repeat these steps but does not happen again until I use Android Auto in my Corvette again. Here's the really weird part though, when I use Android Auto in my Chevy Silverado (2020) this does NOT occur. Things I have tried: Buying a new phone Reinstalling the App Disabled Autolaunch in Android Auto Disable all permissions for Pandora Disable notifications from Pandora Disabled "Launch from car" in Pandora Settings > Advanced > Bluetooth Devices Begged Cried... I have zero confidence this will ever be fixed, especially with the HUGE number of people that have complained about this for YEARS. I have been dealing with it myself since I started using Pandora regularly over 4 years ago. At this point the only logical assumption is that either the developers are incompetent or they don't care, but who knows, maybe this will help them...

YES!!! I don't understand why all versions of a single song are clumped together and picked randomly, that's not what people want!
