Steps to reproduce
Open audiobookshelf app
Play a book
Cast book
Try changing the volume on your phone. This part doesn't seem to work for me (Android 12, OnePlus 7) casting to Google Nest Display.
Expected behaviour
when casting, your phone essentially becomes a 'remote control', so I would expect to be able to change the volume. I'm not sure if this is a bug or feature request but I'm assuming a big, since it works with every other app.
Actual behaviour
The volume does not change.

Another vote for this feature. When casting, volume buttons on phone should change volume on casting device and not on phone. This works correctly in Spotify for example.
I have Google Nest Mini devices and only way to change volume is by touch controls on the device or with Home application on Android that shows the speaker playing ABS and offers volume controls for it.
