Hello. Buttons on lock screen not working properly. Pause won't fire and prev/next is visible but i set to false.

Buttons on lock screen work on lock screen for me (tested on Samsung devices with Android 10). Did you subscribe to events & begin the listen process in your code as well?

The Prev/Next issue was previously observed: https://github.com/ghenry22/cordova-plugin-music-controls2/issues/58

Works perfect on Samsung device with Android 11 for me. Unfortunately that's the only test device that I have.

What events are you listening for to catch play/pause?

This is my code:

MusicControls.create({ cover: 'assets/imgs/icon.png', track: 'Ao vivo!', artist: 'Tabelando', dismissable: true, hasScrubbing: false, playIcon: 'media_play', pauseIcon: 'media_pause', prevIcon: 'media_prev', nextIcon: 'media_next', closeIcon: 'media_close', notificationIcon: 'notification', isPlaying: false, hasNext: false, hasPrev: false, });

  MusicControls.updateIsPlaying(false);
  MusicControls.subscribe((action) => {
    console.log(action);
    const message = JSON.parse(action).message;
    switch (message) {
      case 'music-controls-pause':
        this.pauseAudio();
        break;
      case 'music-controls-play':
        this.playAudioAgain(true);
        break;
      case 'music-controls-destroy':
        this.platform.exitApp();
        break;
      case 'music-controls-toggle-play-pause':
        this.playAudioAgain(true);
        break;
      default:
        break;
    }
  });
  MusicControls.listen();

Hopefully this answer comes in time, subscribing is done in this way: this.musicControls.subscribe().subscribe(action => { .......

I had the same issue on my Samsung Galaxy A41, Android 11. I am using Quasar/Vue framework+Cordova Android 10.1.2

I needed to install the cordova-plugin-background-mode plugin. After that the buttons on the lock screen are working fine and the app is receiving the events.
