mpv seems to ignore config file (or --autofit-larger) when opening audio cover art

Reproduction Steps

1. open an audio file with a high res cover art
2. mpv goes out of windows bound

heres how 1080p video shows up in a smaller windowas expected of config file:

here's how audio covers load and this not following autofit-larger:

They are both on local disks

Expected Behavior

it should follow the config flag (--autofit-larger)

Actual Behavior

it doesnt follow the config

Log File

output.txt

Sample Files

https://files.catbox.moe/brwt84.flac

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

• I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
• I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
• I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
• I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
• I attached the full, untruncated log file.
• I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

Start by reproducing the issue with the attached FLAC sample, the reported --autofit-larger configuration, and output.txt, comparing its audio-cover window with the 1080p video behavior. Trace the window-sizing path for cover art and verify that the resulting window remains within the configured bounds while preserving the reported reproduction case.
