Background Audio during connected Standby

I have a Windows 8.1 Store App that should play a list of MP3 files in the background.


I have setup the MediaElement to be BackgroundCapableMedia, Registered MediaTransportControls and Declared Background Audio capability.


Yet when I run the app on my Surface RT, after I press the power button on the device, the current song plays till the end and then whatever I do, the app is suspended.


Do I STILL (in Windows 8.1) have to do the 'two media elements' hack as described here to have real BackgroundCapableMedia?
