      This sucks. Stop nannying people and leave stuff in their control!

        If I'm playing a song and start the Navigation with this mode activate, the DND (Do Not Disturb) makes the sound disappear. I can't find a solution, have to manually disable de DND or turn the volume up because the Music App continues playing, just the volume that goes to zero.
