Audio And Renoise - Synchronized Pausing

Hi,

Can Renoise and an audio recording be paused and continued together?

I listen to an audio recording, that I trigger as a sample. I pause Renoise, edit some notes and then continue Renoise but the audio track stops playing. So, I am having to start the song again from the top to retrigger the audio track.

P.S.

(Have thought of this work around: a single, very long pattern would give me a minute or two, in which the audio track would continue from where it was paused. Is there a better solution? Can a sofware music player’s pause button be slaved to Renoise?)
