Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior on Android 13 using Cloudstream 4.7.0 (commit 235863f), with picture-in-picture both enabled and disabled. Compare closing the player with the back button against closing it via Home or dismissing PiP; done means playback and its notification behave consistently after those actions. The issue does not identify relevant source files or tests.
