Hey David,
So if i add a white noise generator as a "playlist", start it somehow
on_connect, and stop it via on_disconnect, I suppose I will be okay? I'll
also have to change the buffer stuff to 1-2 seconds (I went and increased
it to 60 seconds to be sure I won't have such problem in the beginning at
least).
I'll post a solution as soon as I find one, I'm sure there are others
searching for this.
Thank you for pointing me to a direction.
Dimitris
