Help Audio stops in headphones as soon as phone sleeps...

[gxynote2]

Would appreciate any help. Just upgraded from a GS3 to note 2 and installed siriusxm app. I always go to sleep listening to music and after about 5 mins music will stop. As soon as I swipe phone it will restart. I checked my wifi and do have checked off the option to never let wifi sleep.
With gs3... the music would stay on until SIRIUS killed it after 90 mins which was more than enough time to get to sleep. Now it stays on for only about 5 mins,
Anyone have same problem or better yet a solution?
Thansk!!

Could it be some settings in the app itself that need to be changed?

Nothing in app. Thanks for the idea.
It will happen to any audio.... seems like when the phone goes to into a sleep its cutting off audio.

Just called AT&T who in turn called Samsung.... Was told that this is a "feature" of the note 2 and had to do with battery life. I can't believe this to be true...

There actually was an option in app to force phone display to stay on.
Even though i can press power button to turn display off the music stayed on.

Thanks!!

I see that this is an ancient post, but it came up when I did a Google search... I use this tiny app on my pc when I need to walk away for any amount of time and see that there is a version for android;

I haven't tried it on my phone yet, but, wanted to offer it up as a possible solution if this hasn't been resolved to your satisfaction... - Bob
