What was the Problem?

For test purposes, I have two servers configured in ABS with the same credentials:

https://abs.example.com - Normal usage, connectivity with outside world
http://192.168.1.2:12345 - Internal network in case of network outage

One thing that I have noticed is that going to "Switch Server/User", the ABS Android Client will disconnect from the current server. This may have been an accidental action, but clicking on the back button

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

Go to upper-right menu and click on "Switch Server/User"
Click on the back button to go back to the main screen

What was Expected?

WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN: The current server should remain connected.
WHAT REALLY HAPPENS: "Bookshelf Empty - Audiobookshelf server not connected"

Phone Model

Pixel 9 Pro

Phone OS

Android 14

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.9.76

Installation Source

Google Play Store
