What was the Problem?

I'm using the newest version of the App with the newest Version of the Server and the newest version of Android on a Pixel 8.

The Problem I often, but not always, encounter is that after closing the app and opening it at a later time the Audiobook continues from an earlier time mark even though it remembers where I left off.

I can then click on the lower time mark that's farther into the audiobook and it will play from there.
But if I don't immediately recognize that it's an earlier time mark and then skip back a bit because I don't recognise where I am the list of history marks gets longer and it gets harder to find the actual point where I stopped and thus want to continue.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

Stop an Audiobook.
Close the App.
Open the App.
Start the Audiobook.. -> wrong time mark (sometimes)

What was Expected?

The right Time mark.

Phone Model

Pixel 8

Phone OS

Android 15

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.9.78

Installation Source

Google Play Store

Additional Notes

The Problem is not new.. I think I have had problems like this for a few months.

It does not only occur when I leave my home network as I previously thought but also when I just stay in it and the App all the time had the chance to connect to the server.
