Further use and observation seems to indicate a prerequisite for repeating the bug.
It appears that this is happening to episodes I had completely listened to in the past, that were removed from my queue. I readded them to my queue and started listening to them, and that seems to be the key piece for repeating the bug. It even persists after marking the episode as unplayed.
@ByteHamster Can I work on this? It has a possible bug label so I don't know if I can.
If you have an idea, sure. But I don't think this is something we can really fix on our end because it is likely caused by the server. If you want to start contributing, I suggest starting with something labeled "good first issue"
Okay thanks
