Research direction

Start by comparing manual episode downloads with Auto Downloads on the reported Pixel 8 running Android 14 and app version 7.64-rc-3. Confirm whether manually requested episodes remain queued, then use that reproducible behavior to identify the affected download flow; done means manual downloads leave the queue and begin downloading.
