I have verified that the bug is not already awaiting release

Yes

What was the Problem?

When I enable my WireGuard VPN connection, the AudioBookShelf app stops sending progress to server (sync: Not sending progress to server). This is despite the connection icon showing a green cloud with the status message Socket connected over unmetered wifi, and being able to browse the server library, start playing new items and mark them as listened. ABS app works as normal when the device is on a network that's routable to the host without a VPN.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. Enable a VPN connection
  2. sync: Not sending progress to server (hasNetworkConnection: false)

What was Expected?

sync: Sending progress sync to server
sync: Successfully synced progress
userMediaProgressUpdate: Received updated media progress for current user from socket event.
