First, amazing application. Fills a major void with my storm. Will be purchasing as soon as trial runs out without question.

As for my bug/feature request, when Aerize Alerts pop up, the playing podcast stops and does not restart. I know this was an issue with calls (and I read fixed), but now whenever I get an email I have to restart a podcast. If you are not familiar with Aerize Alerts, basically its a pop-up that gives a short preview of emails/sms while you are looking at something else. So, for example, it allows me to remain in podtrapper (or anything else) and still see who just sent me an email. Problem really comes when I am listening to a podcast, BB is in pocket, and an email comes in and then I am forced to get BB out and restart podcast.

Best case fix would probably be to pass along the new email notification sound (i.e. short ping) and go right back to the podcast.

Thanks again for terrific app!

Podtrapper does not restart after the short ping notification, so that won't help you.

Yeah, I was hoping the API I'm using for detecting alerts would work on everyone's phone, but apparently it doesn't. This weekend it'll be back to the drawing board on that, and hopefully I'll have a better solution.
