TCPMP allows you to shut off the screen with a hardware key as hbenz said. This feature was more important on the Mogul as if you put the phone into standby with TCPMP playing streaming music, it would still play but skip occasionally, making listening to music quite annoying and frustrating. I've been able to stream music on the TP on standby with no problem however and doesn't even skip as I turn off the phone like the Mogul did.

Hit the power button. Should turn off the screen and continue to play the music, regardless of what media player you are using...

turning the power off seems to turn off the music player. wondering if it has something to do with my s2u2 settings.

Which media player are you using? I experienced this with WMP when I first got my phone but not anymore. I think it was right about the time I did a hard reset. Strange..

Trying going to your today screen and then pressing the power button and see if that works.

I have two TP's & I can turn off the screen on either one while playing music in WMP from the TF3D tab, but I think that is because I am always using a stereo BlueTooth headset.

Same here, I'm using a stereo BT headset as well. Not sure if that has something to do with it.
