Hi guys,
First post here in the hope that one of you lovely people can help me overcome this pretty major issue!
The setup:
1) I'm working at a desk using a tower PC and monitor
2) I have my Surface Pro 4 on the desk, and I'm listening to music on it through headphones using Spotify. That's all I'm doing... I'm not interacting with the Pro 4 device in any other way.
3) Whenever the screen goes off, the music stops until I turn the device back on.
4) Unlike an iPad or cell phone, I cannot find anyway to listen to music without actually having to have the screen on!
We all know the battery life of the Surface Pro 4 isn't great, so to have to have the screen on (even at 0 brightness) just to listen to music is ridiculous.
I searched around and saw a lot of other people complaining about this, even from back in the days of the Surface 2. Is there really no way to do this? It seems like such a massive oversight from Microsoft if not that needs to be fixed ASAP IMO.
Thanks for your help in advance!
