The memory stores a media application to play audio data, and stores instructions that when executed, cause the processor to play the audio data through the media application, sense an event associated with detachment from the external audio device while the audio data is being played, pause playing the audio data, in response to that the event is sensed, identify whether a device the same as the external audio device is attached within a specified time after the event is sensed, and play the audio data, which is paused, through the media application, when the device the same as the external audio device is attached within the specified time.
