Description

#### Describe the bug.
Sometimes when launching Element from iOS notifications (lock screen) it infuriatingly pauses whatever media is playing (in my case, music via Apple Music).

#### Steps to reproduce:

Not 100% clear, unable to reproduce by notifying myself with DMs from a test account.

#### Expected behavior
The app to not pause media/music playback unexpectedly on launch.

#### Contextual information:
iPhone XS. iOS 14.7.1. Element iOS 1.5.0.

Research direction

Start by testing Element iOS 1.5.0 on an iPhone XS running iOS 14.7.1, launching or resuming the app from an iOS notification while Apple Music plays. Compare notification launches with normal launches and document whether media playback pauses; done means the reported pause is reproduced, understood, and prevented or the limitation is clearly identified.
