Voicemail pauses when I put phone up to my ear

I have visual voicemail and anytime I hit play and then put the phone to my ear to listen to the message the message pauses.  The only way for me to listen to the voicemail is to put it on speaker phone.  Anybody know a fix to this?

That’s strange. Let’s see what we can do to improve your experience with your Samsung device.


Which model Samsung are you using, the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge or the Galaxy S6 Edge+? When you place your device to your ear, does the screen go black or is it still lit? Please let me know so that I can further assist.

Having the message pause each time you try to listen can certainly make this difficult darkley15. Let's make sure we get this working normally for you. Does this happen when you are on regular phone calls as well? Does this same sort of thing happen with any other apps when you hold it to your face?

No, it only happens when trying to listen to a voicemail. It's no lock screen enabled. The only time that ever happens is when listening to a voicemail, and you put the phone up to your ear and the screen goes black and the voicemail pauses. I can't find a solution to this anywhere!

I started having the same issue today after my Note 5 was upgraded to Nougat. I never had this problem before today.
