Indeed it does say "direct", and after redownloading it now says "local" and started at the correct position. It even starts at the correct position if I start the app fresh. Local playback did work, as in I could hear the beginning of the book and progress position was not respected. Just some more information, I do most of my listening via desktop browser and occasionally try to pick back up on mobile, when progress syncs properly.
After you download the audiobook to local storage and go to it but before initiating playback, does it by any chance say the following on a yellowish background?
Media is linked to this server but was downloaded by a different user. Progress will only be synced to the user that downloaded it.
I've noticed that happening since upgrading the server to 2.13.2.
Update: For what it's worth, I solved the specific issue I mentioned above in this comment by basically nuking all local app data -- deleted all locally downloaded items, deleted app cache and storage, logged in again, downloaded the books again, and the issue is gone. I have a feeling this may be related to #773 (since in Android's permissions view the app didn't have any permissions requested, but there seems to be no way of forcing the app to re-request them) even though I was using local app storage instead of a different folder -- but that link to 773 is pure speculation on my part.
