What was the Problem?

When streaming a title from the ABS server, cover art is shown in the dashboard view, full screen view, and widget in the bottom tool bar.

When playing a downloaded title, cover art is missing in dashboard and full screen view.

In case it is relevant, nearly my entire collection is m4b files.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

Download a title and listen while using Android Auto.

What was Expected?

Cover art should display the same for downloaded and streamed titles.

Phone Model

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5

Phone OS

Android 14, OneUI 6.1.1

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.9.76

Installation Source

Google Play Store

Additional Notes

No response
