Playing stops on Chomebook when standby is activated

Playback stops when OrangeSqueeze 2.6.2 is running on a Chromebook and the machine goes into standby mode - for example, by closing the lid.

I suspect Chrome OS is sending a media button pause/stop command because it thinks media is playing. If that's the case, we could see about adding an option to ignore those commands but I'm not sure it's a great solution that doesn't introduce more issues than it solves.

You might try one thing -- there's an advanced option to pause when headphones are disconnected. I guess make sure that isn't enabled.
