Just to clarify, do you really mean AVRCP (the ability to pause/play/forward or back tracks via headset controls)? Or do you mean A2DP (the ability to connect to the headphones and play stereo music)?

I use S9's. The pair and connect and play fine. I find that the Music app doesn't seem to control via AVRCP however TuneWiki does. Pandora does not seem to pause/play either in my tests.

Yes. I realy mean AVRCP.

If you are telling me that neither the default music app nor pandora are working with AVRCP then this explains my problem. Those are the two only two music apps i use. I will look into tunewiki though and test it out.

Does avrcp implemented in the apps individually? I thought it would work more universally, like a media key on a keyboard...

I've done some more digging. I saw that in TuneWiki's setting there was a setting called Enable Headset Button. It says "Use wired and wireless headset buttons in TuneWiki instead of the default player." and it was checked on.

When I turned that setting off and retried Music then my S9 buttons control Music!

I retried Pandora without success and noticed that Music was still being paused and played instead. However, when I made sure both Music and TuneWiki were not running (I terminated them), then Pandora paused and played via the S9 button!

Moral of the story? I think they are all capable but they fight with each other over who is in control.

Of course, this doesn't answer why your S9's aren't controlling anything properly however this might give you something to go on.

(PS It probably doesn't matter but my S9's are the HD model)

That seems to be the issue for me as well, i feel like such a n00b haha, shoulda checked that now another issue: sometimes only the mono headset profile connects, not both A2DP and mono headset, any ideas there?
