ios - Phonegap media stops system music -

phonegap media play method has magic option playaudiowhenscreenislocked = false job:

1. prevents app music playing when app in background;
2. makes app music obey hardware "mute" button: without option app ignore if user device muted , play sound anyway.

but there third hidden magic in option. stops current playing song native music app. of it's annoying when want play short single sound.

actually implement scenario:

1. music: check if system music playing on app start. if not, play app music, otherwise let user enjoy own media.
2. sound fx: play little sound once , don't spoil anything.
3. and never play in background , when device muted! if system music app can let so.

has managed similar? thank you.

be aware: simple sound effects not working in simulator.
