No background music in Launchbox desktop app?

[Jav1]

I place the MP3 file in Launchbox\Music\Background

If I launch Big Box the music automatically plays just fine but it doesn't work in desktop mode and I can't find any option to enable background music in this mode. Is this normal?

I believe background music is a Bigbox feature. Launchbox has game specific music, but no background as far as i am aware.

I see. It's a little bit weird because you can play a song per game if you place the file in Music\[Platform name] and you rename it to match the game title but you can't play one file for all games/platforms.
