Play Audio in Background?
Authored by: macavenger on Oct 04, '08 11:29:18AM

Does for me, exactly as I described. If it doesn't for you, then you are doing something different. I started the music with the command as I described, and the proceeded to completely quit terminal. The music happily continued playing. It works.

Play Audio in Background?

No I am not doing anything different? .

But what does work is,

afplay /Users/User/Music/MusicFile.mp3 &  exit

I can then close the window or quit terminal.

Thanks
