play/pause button on headphones work erratically

[Sequoia]

1. Start soundcleod & play some music
2. Hit play/pause on headphones :+1: works as expected
3. Pause & wait a bit (maybe going to sleep affects this? I'll try to see)
4. Press play/pause on headphones

Expected

Soundcleod starts playing

Actual

iTunes starts playing

After that, a second click sometimes causes soundcleod to start playing again :question: :question:

What can I do to collect more debug info? I'm on yosimite.

No idea why this is happening, definitely looks like a bug in SoundCleod. Will try to figure out..

[sammarcus]

This is actually less of a bug with soundcleod and more of a known frustration with OS X. There are a couple workarounds, hopefully this saves some digging on your end @salomvary.

ControllerMate with iTunes Patch (see here for extra details)

Alternatively, check out MMFix or this similar issue with Hermes.

@sammarcus thanks for the pre-investigation, will look into this

@salomvary if you come up with a canonical/official workaround please let me know.
