I've figured out that the MediaPlayer on Android 4.4.2 seems to fade-in the Audiofile automatically.
I am using the MediaPlayer for playing a Sound that mustn't be faded in.
It worked well with a Smarthpone with 4.2.1, but on another Phone with 4.4.2 the Fading occurs.

I've also had a look at the SoundPool, but it misses the Feature of letting me know if the File is still playing.

Am I able to switch off the automatic fade-in or do I need to use the Soundpool and keep an eye on the length of the Track on my own?

Thanks,
