Web Audio Mobile Safari Lock Screen Controls

Question

I have a web audio player that uses Soundmanager2. Right now play/pause work on the lock screen and prev/next do not work. I worked on iOS 7 but I couldn't figure out why.

I see lots of talk about setting the track image and player controls in a native app, but not in an audio web app. That said I'd like to know why it quit working in iOS8 and what I can do to add a track image?

Update: Controls do not work in iOS 8, only on iOS7.

Answer 1

I found this on http://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/doc/download/:

Side note: The prior release's pre-emptive fix for iOS 8 ended up being a non-issue, as the official iOS 8 release did not use "OS 10" in the user-agent string. Nonetheless, SoundManager2 will now correctly identify iOS 10+ vs. incorrectly flagging it as "iOS 1".

Since this question was asked Mar 21 '14 at 20:20, and the heading above it was "version = "V2.97a.20150601"" (6/1/15), which means the update came after this question, and the edit, so it should be able to work now.
