  1. Connect your phone to a smartwatch
  2. Play music through simpmusic
  3. In some tracks the "Next track" button will not show up
Expected Behavior

Research direction

Reproduce the issue using a Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic connected to an Android phone while playing different tracks in SimpMusic. Start by tracing the smartwatch media controller integration and compare tracks where the next-track button appears with those where the heart button appears; done means the next-track control is consistently shown during playback.
