Description

I'm making a very basic app the plays a sound when a timer hits 0. Just a short beep

This is the only audio related code when the app boots up without any user input.

  var audio = new Media(path, null,
    function (err) {
      console.log('media error', err)
    }
  )

but QA discovered that when opening up the built in android music app.. playing any song doesn't work and throws the error "unable to play music while recording audio or video"
