Does the podcast episode you are downloading have progress already or is marked as finished before downloading?

Have you reproduced this with other episodes?

These are podcast episodes that only downloaded to the server, no progress on them. They don't get mark as finished until I attempt to listen, so I will hit the download button let it download and then once finished I will attempt to play. The milisecond after I hit play it will go to 100 percent progress. If I try to use the progress bar and go back to the beginning it will just spin. It happens with multiple episodes, but the podcasts it happens on is random. Some podcast episodes will work and some will have this issue but it always the same podcasts.

Is the actual audio file that is downloaded playable? Does the duration look correct if you press "More Info" on the library file?
