[?][OS] Disable lock screen controls?

[petersonz]

Is there a way to get rid of the controls on the lock screen?

Im one of those weirdos that thinks a lock screen should only have unlock options, not app functions.

This lock screen is provided by OS, so disabling it not possible unfortunately.

Unfortunately not because OS knows that music is playing and thus it is showing standard lock-screen widget.

> possible to disable notifications on every track change ?

Notification plays important role, it tells to the OS that process has foreground priority and app is receiving enough CPU time, otherwise audio playback will become unstable.

What about how to enable them?

They're there when my screen is off and I hit the power button to wake it. And I can control my music. But if I turn my screen off, wait a minute or so, and wake it, the controls aren't there. I want to be able to start my music from the lock screen but it seems like they're set to disappear after a short time, requiring an unlock to play music again. Is there a way around this?
