Research direction

Start by reproducing the delay on Android with the reported Capacitor and Ionic versions, focusing on the path reached after calling the audio play method. The issue does not name a file or test, so trace the Android media-start path and compare observed startup time with the expected 2–3 seconds. Done means audio begins promptly and the regression is covered by an appropriate test or reproduction check.
