Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Can I bother you to request Text To Speech on Android.

Double bubble would be if it uses a proper media notification rather than creates a custom notification.

Why would this be helpful?

Well it is ABS after all. So allowing people to listen to their books seems like a great idea.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

It would add a play button to the navigation bar.

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.11.0

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

N/A
