Audio pauses when Game Center dashboard is viewing?

I suspect I know why this is happening, but when using the prime31 Game Center plugin we notice that the game's audio pauses when bringing up the Game Center overlay dashboard (such as when viewing leaderboards or achievements from within the game). I assume this is because the entire Unity runtime is paused at that point, but my question is: can we avoid this? Is it possible to allow the audio to continue while the Game Center dashboard is up?
