I am experiencing some unexpected behaviour, however it is probably designed that way.

On iPhone, when the App is launched, that is, either I am using it, or it is in the background, then the volume buttons on the iPhone controls the sound of my selected B&O product.

This is all fine and well when I am using the App, but when the App is in the background, and I am for instance browsing Instagram, the App should keep it fingers of the response from the volume buttons. When I find a video I would like to see, and turn up the volume to see it on my phone, the volume of the A6 also shoots up. I need to kill the app, before I start watching videos on my phone to only have the phone respond to volume buttons.

This is how it should work.

1. X App is active = respond to volume buttons. 

2. X App is in background = keep hands off volume buttons.

When I have changed the volume on the phone with the app closed, and then open the app, the app also adjust the iPhone volume level, this also should NOT be done, the first interaction with the volume wheel should do this.

I know that the Now Playing screen is a cool feature, but there is to much overtaking of the phone from the App.

@Weebyx: This is a balance act and we will probably adjust it down the road. When the lock screen control is activated then we have the media session and also the buttons. We could make a similar option for the hardware buttons as we have for the lock screen. When disabled we never hook up the buttons, that might work.  When you start a video from the phone this should take over the media session and we should no longer listen to the hardware buttons. If this still turns up the volume on your product then it is a bug.

If the X App is launched but in background, and I use Instagram and control the volume, this also turns the volume of my A6 up/down. So I guess this is a bug ? Do you need some logs or anything from me ?

@Weebyx: Yes please create a feedback ticket and I will take it from there

@Sandyb: We will let users chose what folder to start from. So now it starts from the root, that is why it shows the folders you list. In your case you can chose the music folder and you would get the artist, album etc. at the top level. We cannot do it automatically since this might be in a different language or you might have renamed the folders to something else. This is completely customizable

Done... I have tried to write a way to reproduce it also, the forst time the app launches, volume buttons works as they should, the second time the app is active from background, and the put to background again, the buttons still control the sound of the selected device.

I just gave the new app a try. I am quite impressed. Much better than I'd anticipated. Great step forward and will even be even more once the missing feature will be added.

I am using the latest IOS (not beta), but ML/NL seems not supported yet at all. Is this still in beta? Any thoughts on my question below?

i have a question for those using the beta, which i read here already supports ml/nl: does the new app allow to play DLNA directly to the ML/nl?
