Help 2.2 Navigation turn by turn voice kills music player

We'll this is a deal breaker for me, after being pretty happy with the RUU update and the speed improvement it brought to the stock music player.

When using the turn by turn navigation, every time the voice comes in the player puts itself on pause. After the instruction is over it remains paused instead of resuming. Then I have to manually hit play again to resume playback. This is a big deal while driving since I don't want to be fidgeting with my phone every couple seconds.

This was not an issue with 2.1 , since as soon as the turn by turn instruction was gone the music would automatically resume. Anyone know a way around this? Thanks.
 
just confirmed does not shut off my music using mixzing. I do not use stock HTC music player. hope this helps

It's not a proper car dock but holds the phone in a real good place for driving and light usage.

Yeah that's what i may have to do. I was hoping there would still be a way to use the stock player since I prefer that player's look and options (specifically the ability to listen to all your tracks sorted by artist).

No problems with Pandora.

Really? You have 2.2, and if you're streaming Pandora and using Navigation, the music will pause when the Navigation voice speaks, and resume playing Pandora after the direction is given?

I'm on 2.2 via Skyraider ROM and it definitely does NOT resume playing anymore.

Please confirm.

Confirmed!! It cuts off Pandora as soon as the Navigation starts to speak and it absolutely did not do that before. I used Pandora and Navigation all the time when traveling and it only paused it and resumed playing on its own before 2.2
