AV output working while on record / record pause?

Can the Canon HF100's av output work while it's in record / record pause?

The reason I'm asking is I sometimes shoot ballet competition videos and most of the time the video is projected live on a big screen.

I mostly pause in between contestants (judges taking forever to give marks/make up their minds etc) to save precious space.

Are you asking if the sound is still routed out of the camcorder while on pause? I wouldn't think so. But I think that's a question for Canon directly.
