Description

Selecting "Play audio in external player" only opens Auxio app. The tracks are not stored and cannot be played. Is ot possible to download them to an external file, so Auxio can pick them up? Alternatively, can you add the option to re-map the audio player, once selected?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the external-player behavior described for Auxio on Android 5.10.226 with app version 0.9.9.91 and SSO enabled. Trace how selecting “Play audio in external player” handles the audio, then confirm that the chosen behavior—making the track available to the external player or remapping the player—is documented and works reliably.
