Hi Guys,

Every time I open YOUTUBE surfing thru web address listening to MUSIC and than open KODI screen while YOUTUBE music is on, Music sound audio immediately disappears. As if KODI overrides. I mean I cannot listen to YOUTUBE Music on web address while KODI screen is on. I do not need to run YOUTUBE from KODI. Please guide me. Thanks.

Seems your hearing is already a bit affected judged from all the shouting in the topic title, right?
You better change it now.

I do believe forum behavior rules apply to members too.

I'm not the one using caps all over the topic title to attract attention. That's annoying behavior. But if he wants attention, he got it.
