Subject: [PATCH] Keep playing a voice message when the screen turns off

The ExoPlayer backing voice messages was built without a wake mode, so it
defaulted to C.WAKE_MODE_NONE and held no wake lock. The CPU was free to
suspend once the screen turned off, cutting playback short.

Build it with C.WAKE_MODE_LOCAL instead. The media is a local file, so no
WifiLock is needed, and android.permission.WAKE_LOCK is already in the merged
manifest. The media viewer players are left alone: they already pause on
ON_PAUSE, so a wake lock there would keep the CPU awake for a player the user
has intentionally backgrounded.
