The same for me. I am excited to know about it.
I'm sorry it doesn't work for you though.

I never tried this before reading your post. But it works for me just
as you described. That is, playing music with the screen locked, then
a double press of the home button brings up the track name and artist
along with a pause button and at the bottom of the screen the unlock
option.

Hello,
Interesting nobody noticed this before and brought it up. I often used to
double press the home key when my phone was locked and I was playing an
audio book. This always brought up the playback controls like Previous,
Play/Pause, next as well as volume and Airplay. I always found this an
easy
and quick method to Pause an audio book or Podcast if somebody came to the
door or when I just wanted to stop it for another reason as I didn't have
to
unlock my phone.
Tonight a friend came to the door and I did what I usually do and was
surprised to notice that a double press of the home button when the phone
is locked now does exactly the same as a single press and that is it shows
the unlock control, it shows what's currently playing and it has, of
course,
the Camera button. No more playback controls.
I use an iPhone 4S with iOS 6 and it would be good to know if this is a
universal change or bug or if for some people who use an iPhone 4 or who
already received their 5 this still works. I really don't know why Apple
would get rid of this as it was such a convenient way to get quick access
to
playback controls, volume and Airplay.
Regards,
Sieghard
