+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #203293 +++ Current Behaviour: When using an audio tag to reproduce sound on a WKWebView, the sound stops shortly after the apps goes to background. Only happens on iOS 13 (including 13.2 beta). Expected Behaviour: Sound should continue with the app in background as it did on iOS 12 and older Sample app reproducing the issue: https://github.com/jcesarmobile/background-audio-bug (note that the app has background mode enabled for audio and still doesn't prevent from pausing the audio)
