** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
- I've switched my phone to Mir, but this breaks activation of music-app
- and mediaplayer-app from music and video scopes respectively.
+ I've switched my phone to Mir, but this breaks many things in the media playback experience:
+ * activation of music-app and mediaplayer-app from music and video scopes don't work anymore; the attached branch fixes this, but is probably wrong
+ * volume up/down doens't work anymore (works with SF)
+ * music-app is whitelisted to keep playing when put in the background, but that too breaks when switching to Mir
  
- Readding the --desktop_file_hints args in application-legacy.conf
- (ignoring the SF test), it works again.
  
- platform-api still seems to require this in both cases (SF and Mir), so
- let's keep it?
+ The attached branch readds the --desktop_file_hints args in application-legacy.conf (ignoring the SF test), and makes activation work again.
+ 
+ platform-api still seems to require this in both cases (SF and Mir), but
+ I guess work is pending to fix this?
  
  Thanks,

** Summary changed:

  platform-api still seems to require this in both cases (SF and Mir),
