My forerunner 955 works fine except for one problem - I keep listening to 1 hour podcasts in typically 10-15 minute chunks using the internal music player, but sometimes when I start listening part way through a podcast, it starts from the beginning! This is very annoying for 1 hour episodes as there's no easy way to resume, I have to throw away the last half of the episode.
The sequence of events is very predictable.
- Put earbuds in (JLab Epic Air Sport A)
- Click watch "Now playing"
- Watch syncs with earbuds
- Plays about 3 seconds from where I left off
- Watch claims it can't contact earbuds
- I click to connect again
- Watch syncs with earbuds
- Plays about 3 seconds from where I left off
- Podcast episode resets to the beginning
When it goes wrong it's always this sequence, always plays those few seconds twice (steps 4 and 8). The connectivity is clearly okay as it plays some of the podcast before resetting.
However, this problem only happens about 1 in 3 times that I start listening, the other times after steps 1 to 3 it just plays normally from where it left off.
I have a feeling this started happening a few months ago but not sure (or the behaviour was similar but different previously.
Any idea what I can do?
