Research direction

Start by reproducing the lock screen player flow: tap play, then tap the skip-forward button, and compare it with skipping inside the app. Use the reported Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro running Android 11 and Pocket Casts 7.67 as the reference environment; done means lock-screen skipping moves forward by 15 seconds without changing the in-app behavior.
