I haven't had this happen with audiobooks but then again I don't really listen to many. I think someone mentioned rebooting and maybe that will help?

I haven't had that happen, but as someone else said, I find that if I bluetooth an audiobook to a different set of speakers, I sometimes don't hear the first word or two on each sentence if there's a "break" between the sentences. I manage to frustrate myself by accidentally pushing the wrong button on my iPhone sometimes and jumping way ahead or way behind in the book...then, I struggle to find my right spot again. But that's my fault. <br /><br />Have you tried listening to the NetGalley books directly from the NetGalley app? That's about all that app is worth, in my estimation. Can't find any other reason to have it. It allows the entire book to be downloaded rather than streamed, and that helps sometimes.

I finally deleted some of the books I had listened to and the next time I tried it worked, but not sure if that was the reason or if something else was going on.
