Experiencing frequent audio stuttering with screen off? Here's how you fix it.

I've been experiencing this infuriating bug since Android 10 (and on 11) across multiple phones (Samsung and Pixel 3a) where audio playback would frequently cut out randomly when I locked my phone. Keeping the screen on prevented the issue, but obviously that's no real solution.
I couldn't find any tutorials on how to fix it aside from one random comment claiming disabling the Google app made the issue disappear. To my surprise this actually worked, but it also removed all assistant functionalit...

Viper4Android

Why is it 2020, and Viper4Android has not been adopted as the standard for audio equalization? I'm using an OnePlus 8.

Stock is a bit of a mess

I'm a little bit curious with the state of Stock Android. I appreciate the software a lot, however, i have many different gripes with the hardware, in most circumstances.

The biggest issue is that i have absolutely zero trust in the Pixel line, or any of Google's in-house built hardware at all. Between their phones, my personal experience with their phones, and the entire rest of the Pixel ecosystem being fucked beyond repair, i dont think i'll ever buy a Pixel device again as i don't expect...
