Bug description:
  This might be a Media Hub bug - I'm not sure.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start playing a podcast.
  2. Switch to a different app.
  3. Lock the screen.
  4. Wait for the Podcast to finish.
  5. Wait a bit longer.

  Expected results:

  No noise from speaker.

  Actual results:

  Soft white noise from speaker. It seems that some part of the audio
  subsystem is still switched on. I am concerned that this could be
  draining battery.

  Workaround:

  After the Podcast finishes, unlock the phone and switch back to the
  Podbird app. This causes the noise to stop.

  Comments:

  I noticed the same soft white noise continues a second or two after
  the phone plays any sound from any app, but then turns off. I presume
  there is some time out turning off some part of the audio subsystem.
  Presumably if there is a reason, it should happen even when the app
  causing the sound to play is not active.
