[Lumia 735] Got from 39% to 0% in 7 idle hours after listening to a podcast

Hi,
I have a Nokia Lumia 735 with suspected battery issue. Last night I listened to a streamed podcast via LTE with the standard Podcas app. Sometime after midnight I switched LTE off, checked in battery saver that I had 39% left, which translated to 1 day. In the morning, around 7:30 I heard the sound of the phone switching off. After I plugged in the charger and switched the phone on, it showed 2%. I had LTE, bluetooth, NFC, Wi-Fi off.

It was not the first time either. If i listen to an audiobook or music in the evening, the battery drains like crazy afterwards (during listening shows only regular, expected battery use). Otherise it works fine. I suspect it has something to do with the "music" apps not switching of completely as they are still available in the upper bar after tapping the "back arrow".

Any advice?
