My Ipod Touch pauses when playing music.

I have had my Ipod touch for about a year and recently it has started pausing during songs and videos. I have reset and restored it to its factory settings but it still happens - it's very annoying! Do you have any suggestions to fix it? Thanks

Ipod Touch, Windows Vista

Unfortunately, I have the same problem, however I also haven't upgraded to 3.0 yet.
I have a 1st Gen iPod Touch 16GB, which has reached the point where I cannot play music without pausing (unless the jack is pushed lightly into a certain position and held there)

I am reasonably sure that this is an audio jack issue. I've owned the iPod for over a year and it's served me perfectly until now. Has anyone come up with a practical solution or is self-repair/new purchase the only option? (I'm also reasonably sure that my warranty is the standard 1 year, which unfortunately I am now over)

not an audio jack issue for me as it does it even when docked, or using blutooth adapter.

I'm just going to see what the new Ipod Touch offers and maybe upgrade my 1st gen to something new/better.

I think I have the solution! I drained the battery and _left my iPod touch untouched for a couple weeks_. When I charged it again the problem was gone. This is over a month ago, and the problem has disappeared. It plays perfectly, and no other problems!

Please repply if this works for others

PS: I have upgraded to 3.1.1
