Question: When game is not in focus

Is there any way to let BGEE run in the background while the game is not in focus? It still runs, of course, but the sound is cut off every time I focus on another window.
I play in windowed mode and I often multi-task while I play. My question is, is there an option somewhere I might have missed to allow the game's sound to keep playing when window is not in focus?

    I don't think so, normally Windows itself is only going to output sound from the foreground application window to the sound system by design. Applications can bypass this, but few of them do since it isn't entirely beneficial to have multiple applications both sending sounds out at the same time.
