Q: iphone 4s speaker won't work with music & movies but ok with other apps like voice memo.
Hi my iphone 4s (v.9.3.5) speaker now doesn't work with music & movies but ok with other apps like voice memo. Music plays through headphones ok. It is not on silent, volume is turned up. I have cleaned headphone and charger ports with soft brush (also inserted and removed headphones/charger several times). Updated to latest phone software. Restored factory settings and then restored from backup - and it worked briefly after restore (played 3 songs via speaker) then stopped again. Also paired with samsung bluetooth soundbar speaker - same problem (pairs fine, played briefly after restore, then stopped playing, but says it is still connected to samsung in bluetooth). However it pairs and works with Pioneer bluetooth speaker consistently. Search on internet said to try turning bluetooth off because iphone may think it is paired and trying to use external device speakers. So have turned bluetooth off, but still wont play music out of speakers. It seems like a software issue. Is anyone else having the problem? (I don't have airplay)
iPhone 4S, iOS 9.3.5
