gmusicbrowser stops playing when screen lock is activated

[Csipak Attila]

gmusicbrowser stops playback whenever screen lock is activated. I use xubuntu 14.04 shipped with Light Locker. Problem occurs both when locking screen manually (via Ctrl+Alt+Del) and when screen lock is activated by timeout.

This is expected behaviour.

Yes it seems to be the expected behavior by light locker.
They have added an option that only lock once the screensaver is deactivated, that should mostly fix your problem (see this for details : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/light-locker/+bug/1296456)
It seems the only thing that can be done on gmusicbrowser's side is to add an option to deactivate the screensaver while music is playing (in addition to the existing option that disable the screensaver while it is playing in fullscreen mode)
