[nabs-l] Pausing audio files when working in other windows

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi,

Try Winniamp as Tyler suggested.  The hot keys should do the trick for
you.  If you don't want to install another audio player but have a
Victor/BookSense or something, or could get m4a files for your IPhone,
those would also be options.
