Steps to reproduce

  1. Set an alarm on the iPhone
  2. Play a book
  3. Set a sleep timer in ABS (can be any type of sleep timer, countdown or end of chapter)
  4. Wait for the sleep timer to stop playback
  5. Don't touch anything on the phone (may not be an important step, just logging for what happened)
  6. Wait for the alarm to go off
  7. Snooze the alarm (may not be important, but that action I took)
  8. Playback resumed

Expected behaviour

  • If ABS was not already playing a book, after an iPhone alarm, playback should not resume

Actual behaviour

  • ABS resumed playback after a pause
  • A sleep timer may be the key here, but most likely this happens even when pausing a book normally
  • An alarm may also not be the only source for playback to resume. This bug should be investigated there aren't scenarios besides an alarm that will resume playback
