Feature request - Allow background apps to play music while VR browsing.

Project Member Reported by dbbrooks@chromium.org, Apr 24 2018 
Chrome in 2D mode allows you to listen to music in background apps. E.g. I can play music from Google Play Music, put on my headphones and browse Chrome while listening to the music. It would be cool if you could do this while browsing in VR as well.

Currently the music stops as soon as you enter VR browsing.

I don't think we do anything to explicitly disable sound from background apps. This might be a platform feature request rather than a Chrome feature request.

I assume the music also stops when you launch other Daydream apps?

Yea, as soon as you enter VR from Daydream Home, the music also stops. Should I move the feature request to the Daydream team bug system?

That sounds reasonable, at least to get DD's take on what they think of this (across all VR apps).

Going to close the Chrome side of this - I don't think there's anything for us to do here.
