Steps to reproduce the bug

Use the skip track or previous track buttons, either on the app itself or on headphones. Sometimes this also happens even if you don't skip a song, and it plays through the queue normally.

Actual behaviour

The app skips forwards/backwards or rewinds the track, but it skips the first 5 seconds of the song.

Expected behavior

It should move to the beginning of whatever song you've skipped. If I want to hear a song again, the previous track button should go to the beginning of the song, not five seconds in. Similarly, if I skip to the next track, or move to a previous one, I should not miss 5 seconds of the track. Pressing the previous button again when it does this doesn't work. It then moves to the previous track, but 5 seconds into it.

I've never had an issue with this in previous versions of the app, and I use this app almost every day, and for hours each day.
