Plexamp playback stopped issue

[psmelion]

Using Plexamp app casts to plexdlnaplayer. If Plexamp app went to background, or phone slept, plexdlnaplayer playback will stop after current track or after next track. I need to go to Plexamp app and select a track to start playback again. Is this expected behavior?

Plexamp casts to Google Chromecast can play continues even Plexamp app in background or phone in sleep.

I can't confirm. Even after I manually close plexamp on my phone where I initiated the play, the stream continues playing because the audio stream is coming from my plex server and not from plexamp on my phone :-)

To me, it looks like plexamp on the phone simply connects plex and my UPnP renderer and then it's no longer needed to run.
