Is there a way to link stopping audio playing to turning the car off?

In our old Ford, when you had any audio playing, when you got home, the audio would continue playing when you turned the car off, until someone opened a door, then it would automatically cut the audio.

In the HS, I would want either the same as above or even just, kill the audio when I turn the car off.

Is there a way, or do I have to manually kill the audio every time?
 
When you lock the car, it stays on?
No. It goes off when you lock the car.
The scenario is:
1) you arrive at home with music/radio going,
2) pull up on the drive,
3) switch off the car,
4) open the doors,
5) close the doors,
6) lock the car.
I want the audio to stop at 4) ideally, but 3) would be okay too.
My 13 year-old C-Max did it at 4) and it made excellent sense. The HS doesn't seem to care if you want to be quiet/courteous when getting home late.

It is not a huge deal, I can just mute it as part of the switch off routine, but it seems "out of character" when a lot of other things are well thought out.
 
I have an MG4, where the pressing of "Park" automatically enables the handbrake too. Your HS may be different.

Preliminary Googlings tell me that if the HS is in park and the EPB is applied, then pressing the Start Stop button once (the LED light goes off) should switch off the car and the audio.

Does this work?

Of course, Google can be wrong!
