Switching tracks preserves seek state

[atlesque]

To reproduce:

• Go to a user's page
• Play a track
• Move the seek cursor so it's somewhere in the middle of the track
• Play another track
• Play the first track again
• The track resumes playback in the last seek location

Expected: The track to start again from the beginning.

I think this might've been a feature at some point, but as a user, personally, this feels unintuitive as all other music players and streaming platforms I know reset playback position on track start. It's up to you though! 😊

Hehe, this is a tricky one. It's definitely intended as a feature. The "reset on play" behavior on other platforms tends to drive me nuts a bit, I like the feature of being able to bounce between tracks.

That being said, there's no easy way on alonetone to bounce back to the start at all, you'd have to scrub... so there's some UX issues right now for sure...

Maybe @ofsound has an opinion...
