feature request: quicker access to sound settings

Feature suggestion: I don't understand why the equaliser and surround sound settings are not quickly available from the 'now playing' panel. When you are seeing what you are playing, that's when you might want to adjust sound/surround settings - it's the natural place for it - not hidden away deep in the settigns four or five clicks away. Makes zero sense to me. Please fix this!

The Equalizer can be made directly accessible from the Now Playing panel.  On the IOS controller go to your account profile, then App Preferences, and there you will find the option to switch on the EQ Shortcut, which will appear at the right hand end off the volume bar on the Now Playing sreen.  No idea though why this option is hidden away in the Account Profile menu, rather than the Settings menu.  Having the option in Settings would seem more logical to me.  Can’t help with the Surround settings I’m afraid as I don’t use these.

I do not understand the need of people to fiddle with settings all the time - that’s what Trueplay is for, to set and forget. So sorry, but I’m actually glad there’s no extra menu muddling up the UI.
