I created an issue on GitHub ( https://github.com/freeorion/freeorion/issues/3350 ) and it asked me to create a new forum post.
Please add something in the title screen code that looks for a different song than the current one. If it's not defined, have it go back to the current behavior (where it plays only one song). This allows the option of adding a title screen song, but if a title screen song doesn't show up, then it wont be silent.
Add title screen song that is different from the in-game song

Re: Add title screen song that is different from the in-game song
Could you make a draft of the "song system"?
Here you suggested adding a tittle (splash screen) song.
In the other thread you talked about background themed songs (time of peace/war, species themes, etc.) and jingles for certain events (under attack, tech researched, etc.).
Those will need backend support, and maybe it could be more efficient to know in advance all that this music system rework could affect or require.

A minimal implementation of this would probably be to add a "Title Music" option below "Music" on the options screen audio tab, which would specify the file to play on the title screen.
