One of our apps has taken over the music controls, whenever I press the play/pause button on my keyboard it plays a glide app sound.  
Odd as the only sounds in this app are triggered by actions such as completing a form.

Anyone else had this?

I have Spotify running at the same time but the Glide app seems to take priority.

Just a guess, assuming this is Apple, maybe anything Safari takes priority over other apps? Not sure if there’s a way to change that in the iOS settings.
