Music play position widget stops functioning upon changing layouts in v1.1.99.1 #221

I'm using version 1.1.99.1 on Arch Linux. I'm new to this awesome music player. I have been trying different layouts. I noticed that after I change layouts, the seek bar (I think you call it the TimeSlider) stops working. It shows the total song length, but it stays at position 0:00 even as the song progresses and plays correctly.

Everything is functioning as expected except that the display of current time position stays at 0:00 and the progress indicator of the TimeSlider never shows any progress. It's just a display issue not a matter of the song playback. Songs play from start to end as expected.

I cannot yet say if reproducing the bug requires going from one specific layout to another, or whether any change of layout will reproduce it, or whether it requires changing the layout more than once, or whether it only happens if the layout is changed while songs are playing. I'll update this with more details as they become clear.

The only thing I am aware that I could have been doing to cause this issue is playing songs and changing layouts (while songs are playing). Today I have stayed on a single layout and the issue has not happened.

BTW, the more I use GMB, the more I like it. It is an amazing music player. Thank you for making it available. There is nothing else like it.
