I have verified that the bug is not already awaiting release

Yes

What was the Problem?

When I have an offline podcast on the app, the playback starts at a random time. So I have to scroll all the way back to the start of it.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. Download a podcast for offline usage
  2. Optionally turn your phone to flight mode (but not mandatory)
  3. Play the local file by selecting it in the "local podcasts" list.
  4. The podcast will start at a random position of the stream.

What was Expected?

The podcast is started at the beginning of the stream.

Phone Model

iPhone SE 2020

Phone OS

ios 18.5

Audiobookshelf App Version

iOS App - 0.9.81

Installation Source

Correct @nichwall - I could not find them when searching from the issues. Closing mine as a duplicate of those ones.
