Uneven scrolling when music player is active

I recently started listening to music on my Motion using the native music player app (not Play Music). The music is on an 8GB MicroSD card. However, I have noticed that the scrolling function is severely affected when music is being played on the device. It skips while scrolling in any screen regardless of the app. I had never experienced anything like this with my previous android phones. Has anyone here experienced a similar thing. Any suggestions or solutions?
 
Do you mean the music skips or the screen skips?

If you mean the screen skips, I just noticed that too. Music plays back fine.

It happens in Google Play Music too, and it only happens when I scroll fast.
 
Oh you mean you scroll and it jumps all the way the the bottom? That happens to me without music and its really annoying.
Reinstalling the firmware won't help too. I've tried. Hopefully it's fixed in CM10 ;)
 
I just tried listening to some music and I scrolled up and down through the forums. Also scrolled through my apps and photo gallery. I didn't notice any major stutter but maybe slightly. However I notice a performance hit when multitasking while on a phone call.
 
I used Pimp My ROM to enable JIT, made a noticeable difference in GUI performance.

I did that a few weeks ago, not as a result of OP's issue.

I take it, you have to be rooted for that! but it does seem to offer better performance and resolve most of the issues I have with this phone. May be it's time to root it.

I'm noticing all these little annoying quirks that I did not expect to see from a phone that has a duel core processor and 1 gig of ram. My previous phones, all LGs, but single core and half the ram never behaved like this. I still like the phone a lot, but I think it should be functioning better with the hardware it has.
