Sometimes, and I think it's a problem. I find on those nights I don't actually tend to fall asleep in a peaceful way, and my sleep tends to not be as good in general. Sometimes the audio will keep me awake past my natural falling asleep point, and then I become alert again to turn it off.
The audio itself is usually a podcast, ranging from some kind of sleep sounds podcast, to a sleep meditation, to a Waking Up (heh) conversation, to some financial podcast or Stuff You Need To Know. None of them have been ideal and I don't like that I'm sometimes compelled to reach for one of these things as a crutch.
Things that usually result in a better sleep for me are reading a book to the point of sleep, and most recently plotting out the story I'm writing in my head - just thinking about it, basically. I try to stick with one of these options most of the time, but sometimes the urge to just put something on still wins out.
