Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Start playback of an audio track (make sure the playback controls are visible)
  2. Lock the device
  3. Observe device lockscreen
Expected behaviour

Media controls for audio playback are displayed on the lockscreen and can be used to play, pause, scrub, etc.

Actual behaviour

No media controls are displayed

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

This worked as expected in the iOS app prior to version 4.0

Environment data

iOS version: iOS 14.6

Research direction

Reproduce the missing lock-screen controls on iOS 14.6 with Nextcloud iOS 4.0.4.0, then trace the audio playback and lock-screen integration; the issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Done means audio controls are displayed and support play, pause, and scrubbing while the device is locked.
