Description
Leaving
Ti.Media.Sound.allowBackground
to the default false
will not only mute the sound when the app moves to the background, but also when you open a new heavyweight window (and thus activity) within the app. I can understand why this is because of the activity that created the sound is then paused, but I think this should not be happening for the sake of parity with iOS.
Proposed improvement
Only mute when the app itself is paused.Workaround
Create the sound inapp.js
. But then, even if you explicitly set Ti.Media.Sound.allowBackground
to false
, the music will continue to play when the app moves to the background.
