Wordpress-android: Audio Block doesn't stop playback after exiting post preview

[JavonDavis]

Expected behavior

Audio Block should stop audio playback after exiting post preview

Actual behavior

After previewing a post with an audio block and playing the audio, exiting the preview and continuing use of the app does not stop audio playback.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Create a post with an audio block
2. Add an audio file to the block with a decent amount of playback time
3. Preview the post and play the audio file
4. Exit the preview and observe the playback doesn't stop

Tested on [device], Android [version], WPAndroid [version]

Google Pixel 4a, Android version 11, WPAndroid 16.7-rc-4

Thanks for opening the issue Javon!

@jd-alexander , did we actually add any special support for the audio block in the post preview webview based flow? Looks like the Video block doesn't have this issue in my testings, but the Audio block does.

@hypest No modifications were done to the webview flow. I am going to investigate this as I didn't experience it during testing.

@hypest I created a PR to address the issue. I added a milestone of the next release, 16.8.
