Why v4a cause no issues in miui even we are using same vendor in custom roms?
It is but you didnt figure it out yet

Check the following and you will find one is broken but be sure viber is working and driver is loaded;
1) notifications or ringtones are distorted
2) bt audio not working or stuttering
3) whatsapp voice notes is crackling or distorted sound when its put in background or.you force screen off

I've managed to track down the issue. It isn't the notification remover module that is causing the issue, it's the Audio Modification Library, which the notification remover tells you to install if you have V4A installed. I have found this to be the case with AEX, Havoc-OS and MSM Xtended. Removing the AML module fixes the issue.
It rather tell AML not needed!!. You misread :laugh:

I'm saying about Vol Down selection - which alone works for our issue. Vol Up doesn't help in our scenario So Why AML??
I'm not saying the vol up selection helps, I'm just saying that before you even make the selection, the module tells you that you need AML, which is what lead to the confusion. I feel like it would be more clear that you don't need it for the vol down method if it didn't even mention AML until after you install the vol up method.

I saw someone made a post on one way to remove the distortion from V4A, but that method breaks Bluetooth audio. This is how you fix it without breaking Bluetooth:

1. Reboot to recovery, mount Vendor
2. go to 'Advanced' -> 'File manager'
3. Go to "/Vendor/lib64/audiofx/" and rename/remove libvolumelistener.so
4. Go to "/Vendor/lib/audiofx/" and rename/remove libvolumelistener.so
5. Reboot to system, install V4A

And that's it

Edit:
You can also just use one of the older versions of V4A without needing a fix of any kind.
older version link please
