Delete button does not delete file

[Friptick]

Further to #401.

Steps to reproduce:

1. in Tracks view, long-press Track_1
2. tap Trashcan icon (causing Track_1 to disappear from the list as expected)
3. in Simple File Manager, go to Track_1's folder. Track_1 is still there! And tapping it will play it in Simple Music Player

v5.11.2 Android 8.1

Update. Looking into this a bit, it is probably an issue with Android's "media database", which is out of sync. You are probably going to say that this is out of the control of Simple Music Player. Fair enough. Any suggestion of a config change or a workaround would be appreciated.

@HonestAbe7 In fairness to the dev, the button you are talking about is a "Remove from playlist" button, with an icon to match. I believe a "Delete" button would have a trashcan icon.

Correction, it is indeed a trashcan icon. I would expect that to delete stuff definitely. In the "queue" or "playlist" view of other apps, there is sometimes a "Remove" button which is not a trashcan. Perhaps that is what could be used here, if the function is not to delete.

I see your point but others music players specify whether it will be deleted from the playlist or permanently much better. I would like to see a popup saying are you sure you want to delete this forever or not? At least it does ask if you want to delete it outside a playlist but it can easily be misunderstood as thinking it would just be not in the list of files. But if you wanted to delete files wouldn't you just use a file manager to delete the files itself instead?

Just an update. To check whether this is just a slow media database sync issue and the files eventually do get deleted, I have experimented by not touching the file manager for two weeks and using only the SMP delete button for audio files.

The files are all still there. The delete button unfortunately just does not delete the files at all.

Thanks @naveensingh, very appreciated.
