MediaPlayer setLooping(true) freezing my phone

Question

I want to loop a music in my app so I use the following code:

mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.music);
mediaPlayer.setVolume(8f, 8f);
mediaPlayer.start();
mediaPlayer.setLooping(true);

I've try to start and then setLooping, the problem still there.

mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.music);
mediaPlayer.setVolume(8f, 8f);
mediaPlayer.setLooping(true);
mediaPlayer.start();

But when the music ends it don't restart and my app slows rapidly until total freeze, but there is no crash. If I look at the log there is a huge succession of :

MediaPlayer_Java: MEDIA_PAUSED
MediaPlayer_Java: MEDIA_STARTED

My phone is a Xperia M4 Aqua.

Thank you for your help !

Thank you but even if I put setLooping() after start() it doesn't work ... — sypotu, Dec 28 '15 at 11:04
Where did you write that piece of code? In onCreate()? Make sure that it is not inside a while loop or for loop blocks. — Hussein El Feky, Dec 28 '15 at 11:18
@HusseinElFeky yes directly on the onCreate() of an all clean new app. — sypotu, Dec 28 '15 at 12:34
