Seeking flac does not seem to work

I tested now a flac and an mp3 file. For the mp3 file, seeking worked! I usually don't use mp3, so I noticed that the seek bar in BubbleUPnP was a different color for the mp3, so it seems that already BubbleUPnP is testing seekability and actually preventing trying to seek if it deems the track unseekable. The test_flac.log didn't seem to do anything when I tried to seek and the seek bar just moved briefly to the position I tapped, then moved back.

Interestingly when I configure BubbleUPnP to unconditionally decode to LPCM via ffmpeg, also flac files are seekable. But it says that my device (my phone?) is doing the ffmpeg decoding, so I suppose that will drain the battery quite heavily…

Could you please look at the logs nonetheless to check whether I could do anything to make the flac files seekable, or whether the BubbleUPnP devs could change something to achieve that?

Thank you for your help, it's greatly appreciated!
