I am trying out the new feature from the build-plugin - unfortunately it removes my sounds from res/raw even though they are referenced in the code. Is there a way to protect resources from being removed?
EDIT - after playing around a bit - it seems that this feature is not yet mature and ready to use - another Project it removes needed layout xml from the support lib:
