Help ICS and Google Maps with Music

Hi all.

I've been experiencing an annoying problem ever since my arc S was upgraded to ICS: whenever I play music at the same time as using Google Navigation (which I do a lot when driving), the music tracks will randomly stutter and then the music will stop playing - again at random points. Pre-ICS, there were no problems with music and Navigation. The problem occurs whichever music app I use (tried stock Android player and a few others - e.g. Jukefox). This has happened with ICS 4.0.3 and 4.0.4. I've also noticed that Google Navigation has been quite unresponsive with ICS on the phone - much more so than prior to ICS.

The problem doesn't happen if I use the NavFree navigation app instead of Google Navigation. However, I like to use Google as it gives me the traffic conditions en route.

Anyone else had the same problem? Any idea if it can be resolved?

Thanks in advance.

Simon
