This has been a long-standing issue for mobile web apps like Grooveshark and Player FM which play full-length audio inside the browser. Unlike iOS and stock Android browser, Chrome has always shut down the audio when switching tabs, switching apps, or turning off the screen. It's particularly been a problem as stock Android browser has a whole range of other issues. Finally, it will be viable to play long audio tracks inside Chrome for Android.
