Not sure if this is only me, but I can use the control to stop the music, but it does not work to start it back up. I have to go back into the tab and click play from there. Love the app and it used to work both-ways all the time. Not sure when it stopped resuming music, but it has been many months, for sure.

The icon turns the music off, or it turns the music on, and that's it. Which is exactly what I wanted. Great extension!
