Android client stops playing after downloading starts.

Hello everyone.

I'm using Subsonic(version 4.8 ) and its android client(version3.8 )

Problem Description:
When I start playing a music then the client starts download mp3 file and starts play it,
but 1sec - 10sec later, the clients stops playing and replay it from beginning.
Once it happens, playing music goes smoothly.

Other clients, web browser and app for chrome on Mac work properly.

Here is the server's log.

[13/10/14 17:20:54 JST] INFO PlayQueueInputStream nac listening to "So Far 3/Rasmus Faber-So Far 3 [Disc 2]-13-Get Over Here [Axwell Re-Mode].mp3"

When I started listening "Life/FreeTEMPO-Life-01-Tomorrow.mp3", then the problem happened.
I don't know that whether what server's log informs is related to the problem or not.

Anyway, I have no idea to find what is the cause.
Please let me know how I find the cause and the way of debugging.
I'll report the debugging result.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Ping.

There was no error log on server when another album were played, though the problem happened.
It may not be related to server side, it is only related to Android app and my smartphone(Kyocera).
So how I find detail log of app and how I debug app?

It is a well known problem that will probably never be fixed in the official Subsonic for Android client. The only way to get around it is to use one the alternative clients such as DSub which I actively develop.
