Sounds like a neat feature, but according to:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/EventHandling/Conceptual/EventHandlingiPhoneOS/Remote-ControlEvents/Remote-ControlEvents.html
There's a bit more that you'd need to do make remote events work.
If this is strictly about having music play in the background, then please
add a comment to this effect, and add code to disable the remote events when
the sound stops or the reset method is called.
