This is a result of our selected app lifecycle. We're not killing any
media in particular, the app is being suspended when unfocused.

The Grooveshark webapp, unfortunately, does not use our media hub that
is meant to allow "escaping" the lifecycle by deferring the actual
playback to a separate process, unaffected by the app lifecycle.

We could think of exempting apps that play sound from the lifecycle, but
that would mean your app can just open a sound pipe without putting
anything in it to stay running indefinitely.

Title:
  App spread should not kill media

Bug description:
  Enjoying listening to Grooveshark tracks that I discovered from the
  Music scope, and I was surprised that going into the app spread killed
  the tunes. Seems legit to let the previously focused app keep the
  sound stage till something else is focused.
