media controls not always overriding.

[CasketPizza]

our media player controller is much better than the inbuilt one! I'm having an issue where it no longer launches your version by default sometimes. Other times it works though, it seems to be a dice roll each time.
I was going to try and make a workaround with Tasker and Autowear but it won't launch the package with the activity attached:

com.thewizrd.simplewear/.media.MediaPlayerActivity

there is an option to launch any app by name, but as your Media Controller shares an identical name to the stock one, it only launches the inbuilt one.
Is there a way to either make your player always override the system one, or to even change the name of Media Controller somehow so AutoWear can trigger to launch your player? I guess that way it could be integrated with more triggers too.
Thanks for your time!
