I'm glad newish android versions have a "allow sound from multiple sources" option, now nothing can stop anything I'm listening to but myself. Before this only Podcast Addict had an option to ignore media pause requests from other apps.

I don't think it's stock android, is it?

Technically no, but you can gain stock access to these permissions without root using AppOps and Shizuku to fine tune permissions.

Used it so I could listen to audio from a camera as a baby monitor whilst still being able to play YouTube videos.

Good to know, thanks!

Wait, Shizuku is a root management app?

Btw. In F-Droid too. App Manager Shizuku

This worked for me, thanks! You don't need to be rooted, but you do need to change some developer options to get Shizuka working. Then disable the "Audio focus" permission in App Ops on one or both apps.

Shit like this is why I'm afraid to move away from Samsung. So many little QoL things and I have no idea if some are stock. Usually only find out once I see them listed as a new android feature.

On the other hand, I sold my S8 after 5 months because I couldn't stand Samsung's Android.
