    I have tried every suggested solution in this thread, and it is still an issue for me. Unity 5.4.2.

    The solution is to check if the system is playing before calling the method like this:

    if (!particleSystem.isPlaying) {
    particleSystem.Play ();
    }

    Getting this issue in 5.3.4f1 still. Tried JEFEQUESO's solution but didn't work either. I did a work around by changing the emission rate to 0 to stop playback and the original emission rate value to play it back.

    //Stop playback
    particleSys.emissionRate = 0;

    //Play particle system
    particleSys.emissionRate = 10;

    Still having issues starting a particle system from code, using the Play() function. Switching from local to world simulation space solves this issue, but it's obviously not a solution. Version is Unity 5.3.4f1Personal. Both on Windows and OSX.

    Totally not fixed. Can no longer vote. must open new issue. JEFEQUESO's solution works but lame to have to do.

    I'm experiencing this issue in 5.3.2f1. Jefequeso's solution works, though this bug should be fixed

    Workaround: Enable "Sub Emitters" on the particle system (values can be left to none)...
