Default Sound stopped working *__*

HAVENT BEEN ON HERE SINCE I GOT MY LEXUS LS400 1995
THAT WAS ABOUT A DECADE AGO.
I NOW HAVE A 2015 IS250 FSPORT

IM HERE TO GET HELP WITH NEW PROBLEMS.
SO RECENTLY ABOUT A WEEK AGO

MY RADIO, BT AUDIO, USB, ANYTHING TO DO WITH MUSIC STOPPED WORKING.
BUT NOT COMPLETELY.
AFTER I DRIVE FOR ABOUT 30-40 MIN IT STARTS KICKING IN. ILL HAVE LITTLE BITS AND PIECES TO A SONG AND EVENTUALLY ITLL START TO WORK PROPERLY. ONCE I START MY CAR IN THE MORNING, IM BACK AT THE SAME PROBLEM.

I CHECKED MY RADIO FUSE IT SEEMS FINE. I ALSO DISCONNECTED MY BATTERY FOR AN HOUR AND LET THE SYTEM REBOOT

I CAN STILL HERE THE CLICKS THROUGH MY SPEAKERS WHEN I GO THROUGH OPTIONS.

NOTHING SEEMS TO HELP. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM?

I've never heard anyone having the problem you're having.
Bring it to the dealership and have them check it out?

For some reason I can sense anger in your post..

On a more serious note, take it to the dealer. First time hearing about a problem like this.

I have a kill switch for the DVD I'm just scared the dealer would blame that even though I had the kill switch for months it was working perfectly fine

i would point finger at that as blame first in my experience.

you'll probably want to double check this DVD bypass just to make sure it did not come unplugged over time.
It might be key to problem

or remove it and see if problem is still here, if it is take it to dealership with it removed for now while they fix it so they cant point blame

This may be farfetch'd but it may be your factory amplifier harness. Open up your spare tire compartment, and to the right (under the first aid kid) remove the plastic cover to reveal a silver amplifier. If you look on the far side of it, you will see (probably) two wiring harnesses, give them a good push to make sure they are connected properly to the amplifier.
