That doesn't happen with bluetooth headphones on an iPhone. If the connection cuts out the music pauses. I doubt it's a problem on Android as it's trivial to prevent that behaviour.
If the music pauses you don't necessarily know why and might press Play, which will then start playing from the device speakers.
This happens to me all the time when I walk too far away from a bluetooth speaker in my house. Or when I have paused playback for too long and it automatically disconnects. Albeit this is on Android.
Unless there is a giant visible indicator that you are connected to the bluetooth device, there is always going to be a level of uncertainty that is bad, imo. You just can't beat a physical plug.
I see what you mean, I suppose a physical plug is more or less 100%. However I still think diligently written software can solve this.
The headphones I use say "connected" and "disconnected" so it's not happened to me personally. iOS also has an indicator of what output it's going to use right next to the play/pause on the lock screen.
Also to be honest I'm not that considerate a person and don't really care if I accidentally disturb the people next to me for a few moments.
Regarding wires, I've got the opposite problem now to where I'm so used to wireless headphones that if I used wired ones I'm liable to try and walk away from the device without unplugging.
