When listening to a podcast on the native Podcast app, every time the screen times out and I hit the power or home button to wake the screen, the podcast continues to play...BUT, when I swipe to unlock the screen, it pauses the podcast, and I have to go into the app and hit play again. Happens every time. :/ Anyone else having this issue?
Got a tip for us?

Try closing out any background processes that might have been playing audio or video (YouTube, Safari, music, etc.). The YouTube app in particular has caused this issue for me a couple times now.
This seems to be an "on again, off again" issue for me. It was doing it earlier this weekend, then it stopped, and now it's doing it again today.
I was also having an issue with the Music app. I would be listening to a song, unlock the phone, and when I would unlock the phone it would wind the song back anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds.
Both apps just generally seem to be acting buggy to me. No background apps or anything like that that would be causing interference, just having some strange issues whenever I have any type of audio playing and I go from a locked to unlocked state on the phone. Weird.

I listen to Twit.Tv podcasts all the time with the screen off and it doesn't time out for me.
