Audio Cues / What's New in vUnknown
Version 2026.05.1
* New: "Exclusive audio focus" setting sends a message to other audio apps to "duck" (stop playing) when Audio Cues plays a sound.
Fixed in MediaPlayer with this release:
* When an Audio cue follows a Fade and its trigger is "With previous cue", the Audio cue didn't play reliably.
* When an Audio cue finished while a Fade cue targeting that Cue was still running, the Fade wasn't canceled.
