Steps to reproduce

Set a sleep timer to the end of the chapter
Wait for the end of the end of the chapter (can skip forward to reduce the wait time)
Observe that a small percentage of the time, playback does not stop, yet the sleep timer is cleared
This doesn't always happen, so it make take several tries to reproduce

Expected behaviour

The chapter sleep timer should always stop playback

Actual behaviour

The chapter sleep timer only most of the time stops playback

Proposed fix

This is related to logic for clearing the chapter sleep timer if you skip past the chapter end
I will either ensure that the sleep timer logic can be guaranteed to run before the sleep timer is cleared, or I will ensure that the timer clear logic also stops playback if within the time range the sleep timer is supposed to end
