    What's the issue? I know that WhatsApp uses the audio API (or whatever it's called) when you run it but I've never heard any sounds...

    Listen to your speaker like Rahul says (who has an awesome avatar lol) - it's weird Microsoft tolerates this workaround actually.

    Yea that's what I was talking about. It's been in WhatsApp since the app used to use (and i still still does) the audio API in WP7 to keep itself alive. The sound in itself doesn't really bother me its the fact that WhatsApp takes over the sound controls sometimes and I don't know if disabling it would decrease power consumption.
