Hi,
Samsung removed a support for listening to music via USB. I can't listen the music through my Fiio.
I called in support and there I was "explained" that support for playback is not guaranteed, since usb contact is only 5 mm. I use their own adapter micro-USB to USB-C, but support again repeats the same mantra: not guaranteed playback.
The Samsung Note 8 has USB audio capabilities, it has not been removed. It also has Samsung Pro Audio Support from the testing I have done. You have to use an OTG cable or adapter for it to work. Use the regular Female USB to Male USB-C OTG adapter that comes with the phone to get it to work, the micro USB to USB-C adapter is not an OTG adapter. I have the Zorloo Z:ero In-Ear Headphones (these are micro USB and work with adapter), Zorloo ZuperDAC, the AudioQuest Dragonfly v1.5, and a Fiio Alpen 2 E17K, they all work great for me with the Female USB to Male USB-C OTG adapter. Also what media player are you using on your Note 8? I have no problems with PowerAmp (beta) and USB Audio Player Pro. The USB Audio Player Pro states it works with these USB DACs:
Just a selection of our supported DACs:
• Audioquest Dragonfly
• Cambridge Audio DacMagic 100
• Centrance Dacport LX / HiFi M8
• Cypherlabs AlgoRhythm Solo
• FiiO E7/E10/E17/E18
• HRT Microstreamer
• Ibasso
• iFi nano iDSD / micro iDAC
• M2TECH
• Meridian Explorer
• NuForce uDAC / Icon HDP
• NwAvguy ODAC
• and many more!
It Works!!!
I have a Fiio E-18 Kunlun and it works fine on the N8 through the USB C port. I had to purchase a new cable from Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072PVJ96B/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
That is the 4' cable. I also purchased the 6" cable.
You might try to tune the audio on the N8 to your hearing using settings. I think it was the adaptive audio or something similar. I think it improved sound quality for me.
Thank you, friends. I will go to buy one more cable.
Hi I have exactly the same headset and bought what I was told was an otg adapter on amazon - but trying to play deezer does not work - do I have to download another player? will it then only play music I have on the phone? (I have none)
^ Another piece of advice guys, consider using Viper4Android, when hearing the difference with/without it, it's like day and night. Amazing bass control, full equalizer control as well as many other options for tweaking and adjusting sound. Give it a try if you haven't already!
Note 8 Not Working With Kunlun E18
Hi,
I have the Note 8 as well as the Fiio Kunlun E18 and I'm having trouble getting it to work correctly. I am using a USB C OTG adapter with the micro usb cable that came with the Kunlun. When I plug into the Note 8 a USB options screen pops up in the notifications panel that gives you a few options, but if you try to select any of them it just reverts back to 'charge device'. It's strange because the other day after turning the Kunlun on and off a few times and then selecting MIDI Device in the notification panel options on the Note 8 I finally got it working. Now, I'm trying to listen to my music again today and it is not working for me no matter what I try. The USB Type-C to MicroUSB Female OTG Adapter I am using is from a company called meenova. I ordered it from Amazon. I'd like to add that when I connect the two devices together all the volume levels drop to mute, and if I try to slide the Media volume slider up it just goes right back down to mute. I can hear the audio from my Power Amp Player app temporarily as I do this. Any help would be appreciated. When it was working the other day I did not have Developer Options enabled in the Note 8. Do I need to do this and mess with some of the USB Audio routing options? Thanks.
Hi, all. I realize that this is an old post. I hope that it is ok to ask my queston. I bought an XDuoo Link DAC(USB-C), but can't get my Note 8 to recognize it. The USB configuration doesn't even allow for USB audio. Is there something else I can try?
Any luck there? I've been trying to connect my N8 to xDuoo XD-05plus with an OTG cable that came with the dac/amp but with no success.

The Samsung Dock has a 3.5mm stereo jack on the back so clearly the audio is available via the microUSB.. So, given i would like to charge the Note and play music in the car, has anyone found a cable that has micro USB at one end and splits to USB (for charging) and stereo 3.5mm (for audio)?..
thx!

Nope. I've only found this http://www.shopandroid.com/htc-3-in-1-usb-adapter/5A18A3571.htm
I don't know if it would work with SGN (even though you would still need an adapter from miniusb to microusb).
something along the lines of this?

Has anyone who has the nexus 7 already tried a regular usb dac yet? I'd really like to get a fiio e7 and try it out but not waste the money if it doesn't work. I can also maintain this thread with a list of working dacs if we can figure out if any work.

I am also very Interested In this. I will be getting a tube magic D1 USB DAC and I will see if it works. I am unsure if USB DACS will work but now that Jelly Bean supports USB audio well have to wait and see. I have not gotten my N7 yet but once I do I will be eager to see whether this will work or not.

Don't get your hopes up, as early reports are they won't. Of course, unless the hardware will simply not support it, it's only a matter of time until a custom solution becomes available.
I'm sure we will eventually get working DACs, just looking for any reports that it's working on any existing DACs.

Does not work with my E7 or E17 because Google have not used a standard USB audio implementation. I don't think it will work with any USB DACs unless they are made specifically for it. Disappointing since my Archos G9 and S3 do both work with standard USB DACs.
This was my setup:
A USB OTG cable to a USB to Audio adapter.
It didn't work, and all I got was a loud buzz
I included pictures.
when I get my n7, I'm gonna try my Logitech G330 dongle.
Any news about USB dac?

"eXtream Software Development has managed to get USB audio recording working on Android 3.1 or higher devices! By writing a custom USB audio driver from scratch, both USB audio playback and recording will be possible for a lot of USB audio standard compliant devices.
The driver will completely bypass Android including Android's incapable audio system. The advantages of USB audio and our driver are plenty:
* Finally you will have decent connectivity to your Android device: connect mics with XLR, line inputs, instrument levels inputs, depending on your USB device
* Playback and record in 16 or 24 bit
* Lower, but more important, predictable latency that can fully and automatically be compensated for
* Zero-latency monitoring on the devices that support it
* Control hardware level input gain on the devices that support it
* Multitrack recording capability
The USB audio recorder will be available as a stand-alone app and the USB audio driver will be available as an in-app purchase in our flagship multitrack audio sequencer, Audio Evolution Mobile. Currently, only USB audio spec 1.0 is supported, but this will be solved in a subsequent release. Both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices will be supported however.
Requirements will be an Android 3.1 or higher device and the device must support USB 'host' mode. Most recent devices have 'host' mode luckily. If your device has a micro-USB port, you can connect to full-size USB using a so-called USB OTG cable. No rooting of your device is required.
Testers wanted:
If you are interested in a pre-release alpha version and meet the following requirements, please send an email to info AT audio-evolution.com:
You have one or more Android devices that meet the requirements
You have one or more USB audio devices
You are fluent in English writing
You usually answer to emails within 2 days"

There's some similar models with similar look. All functions work (audio out, microphone in, play/pause/call, volume). Also, such adapter works with V20 and Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra (change USB mode to audio in Developers Option).
Regular USB speakers and USB sound card also work through USB C to A female adapter.
Notice: these audio adapters draw power from your phone. Unplug when not in use.
Hi
I've received my P20 Pro this week and am loving the phone so far. However, one big issue remains that i can't seem to get my head around - how to play audio from the phone through my non-Bluetooth car stereo?
I previously had an iPhone 6 where this was easy; plug the phone in to the stereo via USB and it would simultaneously charge and play music from the phone through the car stereo.
But when I plug in the P20 Pro via the same USB port, I can't seem to get audio coming out. I know it's possible - as obviously headphones plug in to the same USB-c port - so is there something I have to turn on or toggle to get it to send audio out?
Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks - I looked and it's not checked. In fact, the headphones work when you plug them in, so it is allowing audio out with certain connections.
It's just when I use the charging lead to connect the phone to the car stereo (USB) - nothing happens. It doesn't even charge, and says "check USB" on the front of the stereo. if I play music when it's connected, it just comes out the phone - which obviously it wouldn't do if it was connected to the stereo.
Do I need a specific audio lead, rather than just the basic charging one that comes with it?
Coming from an iPhone background, it's just the same lead... so I'm struggling to see why this won't work either.
My case was huawei p20 pro generate so much noise and jitter during playing through USB audio connect to Helix dsp, it solved by changing USB speed mode from full speed mode to high speed mode on the Helix dsp USB setting. As my iPhone was working fine on both mode. In case if you can try to change setting on your car stereo system. Try to consult with your car stereo manufacturer.
Hi Slangking, did you already find a solution to use P20 (pro) audio over USB in your car? I'm having the same issue as you, went from the iPhone 6 to p20. Just a cheap USB stick works, and I could even remote spotify on my iPhone with my steer trough USB. Changing the USB output in the developer settings to audio source didn't work
- EDITED -
I did some research and mounting your memory card as a USB Mass Storage will work like explained over here, but I still can't find out how this will work for the internal storage...
UPDATE
I found something called WIRELINQ: Smart Android USB Converter Cable for Car Stereo. Started as a kickstarter project, but are now able to buy. Will try that one out.
I got one of these and found I can't get anything to play through the stereo, the audio plays on the phone speakers but the track info displays on the stereo screen and the steering wheel controls also work, I can disable USB audio streaming via the dashlinq app which makes radio player within dashlinq work properly.. but nothing else works.. have you had any luck?
Thanks for your reply. You are a step ahead of me. I have the Wirelinq cable but couldn't get it to work, not even the track info on my cars stereo display. It recognise the Wirelinq cable, but not my phone. I am in contact with GROM and even tried to install a new firmware update (which I was able to install myself by connecting the cable to my computer), so there last message was:
This is issue of the phone USB Audio output in software not working correctly as standardized by Android's AOSP. You will have to contact Huawei to get support and resolve it on phone's software end.

Did you ever get anywhere with this? I'm a new P20 Pro owner (also having switched from iphone 6) and wanting to crack this issue. Thanks.
Not sure if there is a solution. iPhones behave differently when connected to stereos, just like an usb stick. Android devices don't, unfortunately. I am using an AUX cable with the usb-c adapter in my husbands car, or bluetooth streaming in my car.

No, it didn't work. Maybe it will if GROM will come out with an update. I've returned my cable and have bought a bluetooth to AUX receiver adapter on eBay for just a few dollar. This actually works very well, you plug the bluetooth adapter in your USB and the cable in your AUX and you can listening wireliss music on each app through bluetooth. The downside is that you won't be able to see your track details, no remote from your steer and the quality is different. But you can still charge you phone with a normal USB cable while listening. It's not a solution, but I got used to it now.
Not a bad idea with the bluetooth to aux!

iphones actually don't behave like a usb stick when connected to a stereo. the music is still played on the iphone, but the sound is streamed to the stereo. controls on the stereo actually control the playback on the iphone itself.
with android, to play audio over usb, you need to use mass storage mode, which will behave just like a usb stick.
ios can output digital audio over it's usb cable, which the stereo can receive.
android can output audio through usb-c, but i don't think that it can be used to output audio over the usb cable like iphones can. it might be some protocol that iphones use and android phones don't, but technically it should be possible.
Just stumbled upon this thread as I am in the same situation. Basically, I have a P20 Pro and a Huawei Mediapad M5 Lite that are behaving exactly the same..i.e they cannot play audio from USB to car stereo's USB ports. The internal media can be browsed and played via car stereos interface but you cannot stream music via USB from phone (say Spotify) to car stereo.
USB audio streaming works if I enabled ANDROID AUTO at the car stereo and installed ANDROID AUTO in the phone/tablet. You might ask why not just settle for this setup?
I can, butI I hate so much the AA's "Swipe to Unlock" lock and the changes in the UI when AA is active.
What I want is the plain/original phone interface (without AA) and all audio routed via USB.
Bluetooth, I know is an option, but again, it would be nice if this (USB) can be solved. It seems possible, I think. If AA can switch USB audio streaming on, can other apps or workaround/reverse engineering not?
BTW, i tried playing with the Developer Options, USB Configuration as "MTP or Audio Source" --- no luck here
Just bought a Kenwood DDX6906S receiver for my 2013 GMC Sierra I cannot get anything to work via USB. USB debugging enabled. I feel like I've been going in circles. any help would be super appreciated, TIA
Hi guys!
I bought headphones USB-C Oppo MH135-3 and tried connect them to Realme 8 Pro but headphones doesn't work. Despite fact that theadphones are connected to the USB-C, the sound is still heard from the phone's loudspeaker.
I turned on the OTG function, but it also didn't help.
There was not even an icon on the phone that the headphones are connected, nor any system message about the connected device
Has anyone similar problem and knows how to solve it?
I think, theres no solution. That headphones works only with Oppo device but not all of them...
(I checked it in store)
Strange
Go to settings/additional settings and Look for OTG switch. Unfortunely you have to check that box every time you connect headphones. At least it works for my setup - OTG adapter + senheisser earbuds..
