[#12379] Lockscreen controls fail.

MMA 1.1.0.0343 Pro Licenses

I use 'Media Utilities (Beta)' to have my own widgets rather than MMA's. This requires the ability to respond buttons. After a while MMA stops responding to the widget and only starts working again when the option 'Show the default Android lock screen player' is unchecked and then checked again in MMA. This has only started happening in the latest round of MMA betas.

Logs sent ID OXHL5TVRMA

They failed again not long after a reboot. I restarted the lock screen 'process' by pressing stop on the MMA notification bar controls then pressing stop on the subsequent new MMA notification bar controls.

This is most likely a manifestation of http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=12379 .

Please let us know if the next build resolves the problem for you (likely to be posted on Thursday).

Thanks.

Not sure if the solution fixes this. Discovered more on the problem.

It seems that my problem is being caused by MMA not becoming active media player if started by notification bar or MMA widget thus lock-screen controls not triggering. Starting playing by the app itself works triggering MMA to be active media player app and then all other methods work until active media player app changes.

This seems to have fixed part of the issue in 352.

This seems to be a separate issue so I'll make a new post.
