On Android, after a minute or so, the audio will drop out for a bit (10-30s) before coming back. It's not a pause, the book continues forward.
This doesn't appear to happen on Android Auto, and if I pause the book long enough sometimes it stops happening.
It happens again if the app closes.
It's beginning to drive me a bit mad.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
Open the app, play locally downloaded audiobook (especially over Bluetooth headphones).
What was Expected?
Continued audio
Phone Model
Android Pixel 10pro
Phone OS
Android 17
Audiobookshelf App Version

Additional Notes
It's actually the android 12 beta version

@csanner commented on GitHub (Mar 26, 2026):
force-stopping the app and clearing cache seems to help for a few hours.
