Reproduction steps
  1. Add the attached HLS livestream to cast demo media sources
  2. Start playing it using local ExoPlayer
  3. Start casting the media
Expected result

The TimeBar in the UI has a draggable playhead that allows to seek backwards (as when playing this content locally without casting)

Actual result

The TimeBar has no draggable playhead, so it's impossible to seek backwards
