I have verified that the bug is not already awaiting release

Yes

What was the Problem?

On Android, when you have a playlist of titles displayed, switching libraries will not return to select a playlist.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. Go to a Library which has an existing playlist.
  2. Select the Playlist tab to show list of playlists.
  3. Select a Playlist. A list of titles from that Playlist should appear.
  4. Switch Library.

WHAT HAPPENS: The screen remains at the list of Playlist titles, and does not update with the switching of the library.

What was Expected?

Since we are switching libraries, the app should return to the list of Playlists for that library.

Phone Model

Pixel 9 Pro

Phone OS

Android 16 Stock

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.10.1

Installation Source

Google Play Store

Additional Notes

Replicated on both phone and tablet running Android 14. Because I have a large number of audiobook titles, I use multiple libraries for usability. This is similar to the collections bug at https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/1712
