Hi mmm2015
I assume you are using Firefox for Android to listen to radio in one Firefox tab and you are switching to another tab and the music stops right?
- Could you please let us know the URL of the radio website?
- As well could you please let us know the exact steps you followed to reproduce this problem?
Cheers!

Hi Roland,
Thx for your interest in my problem! You describe it right. the URL of the website is: http://www.nederland.fm/ Exact steps: 1) open firefox 2) open URL 3) listen to radio 4) if I switch to another application, without closing firefox, , the radio stops
(Samsung S5/ android lollipop)
Hope you can get me an answer. Thx for your help.

Android will terminate apps to allow other apps to run. When you switch from Firefox to a game the android LMK can be triggered which will free up resources by stopping other apps. There is no way Firefox can prevent this OS functionality .
Hi again mmm2015:
kbrosnan is right (as almost always :-) !) just verified that even within the browser switching from tab 1 playing a video to tab 2 displaying just a plain html page without audio or video often causes the video from tab 1 to stop playing (and it's the same for switching from firefox to another android app, kevin is right the Android Low Memory Killer will often stop the audio from firefox)
Cheers!

Just tried another browser (android standard), and then it is possible to listen to music and start another app. The problem is firefox linked.
Other browsers use the webkit engine which is built into Android. This means that Android will only kill those browser in the most dire memory/CPU situations. Firefox does not use webkit so we are at the mercy of the Android memory killer.
kbrosnan, thx for your answer. :)
