Could it be a bug in a component used in universal sound drivers related to time?
Or maybe a power surge that caused it in all devices at once? Were the devices connected in any way?
Did the devices use any common software or OS?
Were you blasted with radiation which caused a bunch of booleans to flip in all your devices?
could this be a solar flare?

I live in Fukushima btw /s.
I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but those magnetic waves man, the government is onto something o_O
How were you playing the sound? (What software)
Was the phone plugged in @ the same time?
If you repeat the setup/performance, does it stop again? If it was plugged into the mains like your keyboard, A transient voltage anomaly might be to blame?
It's an old Casio keyboard. The phone, a samsung, is not plugged to anything and was recording separately.
I will try recording the exact song later and see if the issue persists.
and? does it?
I think I have an idea now what the issue is?
The keyboard stops recording after 4 minutes. So now, the trickier part is to explain the correlation between the keyboard and the phone. The abrupt stop of the keyboard's recorder affects, in a yet inexplicable way, the phone's camera.
Please update us! This is an interesting question.
