How to keep audio player working after component destroy

[pleerock]

Let's take Whatsup app as an example. In the message list we show list of audio messages (where is used). In the message list sound track keeps playing, however, when we leave message list (go to contact list) we destroy message list (where is used), but need to keep playing the sound. Currently it seems not possible (since gets destroyed)?

Is there any way to keep sound (or multiple sounds) playing after gets destroyed? Maybe some underlying APIs which expose the underlying Sound object where we can get control over currently playing sound.

Okay, I was able to control it using AudioWaveform and writing custom UI component to show the waves. It would be great if you export AudioWaveform from the main of the package.
