I have an iPhone 4S not jailbroken and running the latest OS 5. I listen to music, podcasts, or audiobooks which are in MP3 format primarily in my car. My car has a navigation system which has a special dock connector for the iPhone so when plugged in, the song and details will appear on the navigation screen and also allows controlling what else to play.
If I am listening to an audiobook for example, sometimes when I plug it in, the phone totally forgets where it was and just starts playing the very first music track I have in alphabetical order. It does not matter whether this is in the morning after an overnight charge or after a day at work. It happens about 10% of the time but it is frustrating. I have gotten to the point where before plugging the phone in, I open up the music player which is still showing the correct location, play a bit, then plug it in and that always works.
But are there any ideas how I can avoid this problem all the time without having to do this?
