Quick Fix:
Make a copy of /LaunchBox/Pause Themes/Default/
In the new Default-Copy folder, edit
default.xamlRight below
<Canvas Name="Canvas">Add the line
<MediaElement Source="{Binding SelectedGame.MusicPath}" />Save and close
Do the same for
Arcade.xamlSet this new Pause Theme as default
If the game has an associated music file, it’ll play during Pause.

User can choose to enable this feature in settings. Add folder to LaunchBox that music files can be added to play randomly. Also the specific games music if found will be played in the shuffle. If possible add a volume normalizer because many of the recordings from EmuMovies play at varying volumes.

Cool request.
I assume it would be nice to have general music, platform specific override music, and then game specific override music.
In your vision of this feature are you thinking that user’s themselves would dictate what those are?
Also, are you thinking that themes would have the ability to override user settings and choose their own music, forcing users to listen to their vision of what a pause screen should be like?
