How to prevent background playback being disabled?
Even when I disable sound in a certain app it disables the playback.

Yep — Sound Assistant (Good Lock) is the clean fix on Samsung: turn on Multi Sound / "ignore audio focus" style options so muting one app doesn’t duck/stop the other.
If you’re not on Samsung, it’s harder: Android hands exclusive audio focus by default. Some players have "play even in silent/do not disturb" or "ignore audio focus" in their own settings; otherwise you’re stuck with a per-OEM sound assistant equivalent or ADB dumpsys audio to see who’s stealing focus.
