   I'm having this problem too; more specifically, stopping/stopped doesn't fire on any Android 2.1 that I tried (both emulator and a real device). playing/initializing/etc all work fine.

   This is a blocker for my app, I can't build a good media player with a playlist if I don't know when a song stops playing :(

   For now, I'm using a function being run at intervals that checks the playing and waiting properties, but this isn't a real solution to this issue.

   I'm having this problem as well. Seems to be related to the 1.5.x branch, tested 1.5, 1.5.1 and the 1.5.2 build from Dec 27 2010 12:47 r9a159e76 - The change event does not work. Tested it on the Audioplayer version of Kitchen sink. Attached the project.
   Tested the same on project on 1.4.2 and the latest master: Dec 28 2010 21:19 r9157d0d9 and it works.

   Not sure why this is not getting any attention. The player state does not change. Can anyone at least confirm whether this is a real bug or not?

   I'm still waiting for somebody to tell me if I am dreaming or not on this one. It's kind of killed my development of a radio station app, at least under 1.5.1 when building for the iPhone.

   I can build OK under Appcelerator SDK 1.4x but because of another bug whereby my app seems not to want to run under iOS3.1 I was hoping that the latest of everything would be 'the fix'.

   I use the 'change' event to monitor the stream so the stop/start button can change it's icon in response to the actual stream, also to supply a user with some text as to what's going on - i.e. "Buffering", "Stopping" etc.

   I've verified that the change event does not work in 1.5.1 as well. Re: http://developer.appcelerator.com/helpdesk/view/62371">http://developer.appcelerator.com/helpdesk/view/62371

   The audio change event works in 1.6.

   Audio Events do not appear to be working in 1.6 either - I've done multiple clean builds on the latest daily snapshots, and it's not working:

   I just got done testing the latest build here:

   and events are not working for me.

   @talldude: it is working for me with this build: "Jan 21 2011 19:11 rfcfcc850" on http://builds.appcelerator.com.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html">http://builds.appcelerator.com.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html

8. Reggie Seagraves 2011-11-07 Fixed in a previous checkin.
9. Eric Merriman 2011-12-06 Verified fixed with SDK 1.8.0.1.v20111205164258 on iPad 2 (4.3.5), iPhone 4s (5.01), iPod touch 3rd gen (4.0.2). All devices report as in Reggie's comments above.
