Catalyst 60 (USB isses when connected to Pixel phone)

[zodymarc]

I'm having a weird issue when I connect my Pixel (6) to the USB and use it to play backing tracks through the amp.  Doesn't matter what app I use (Tidal, Spotify, YouTube).  Everything works great....for about 4 minutes, then the audio completely cuts out and won't come back on unless I disconnect the phone and plug it back in.  Then I get another 4-ish minutes.  I realize this is very likely a Pixel issue and not a Catalyst issue (everything works great if I plug my laptop into the amp), but I figured maybe someone had run into this issue.  I tried airplane mode, forcing the screen to stay on, etc.

In Samsung phones there is an option that is intended to disable the usb connection after the screen goes off. You need to find if there is some similar security settings in your device. I dont have pixel sl its hard to tell. Try to keep the screen on for a long period of time will playing musical and you will see

As a further update, it does not appear to be a "sleep" function (unless there is something that goes to sleep even when the screen is still on).  Today I turned on the backing track and continued to use my phone, preventing it from going to sleep.  Again, 4-ish minutes later, volume went off, I quickly switched from "headphones" (which is what my phone thinks is connected) to phone speaker, and then back to headphones and it comes right back on for about another 4 minutes.
