It started with the most recent update. When in car mode and outside of it. In car mode, when the phone auto locks the music stops and I can no longer control my phone using the controls in my car. I could do so before the update. I have to keep unlocking it to get it to play.

Listening to my phone at my desk too the music stops when the phone locks but comes back on after a couple of minutes. Its not my network. Soundcloud is working fine.
