[Bug]: Android Sleep Timer resets after pause/play

[PorreKaj]

What was the Problem?

The sleep timer resets when resuming playback after pausing.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

Play something, set timer, wait for timer to reduce, pause, play. Timer is back to its initial value.

What was Expected?

In other audiobook apps, as well as the web-version of audiobookshelf, the sleep timer persists.
I expected the android app to work like that - could be an optional setting for those that wish to keep that behaviour.

an option would be okay since if you paused you are awake and then sleep timer continuing does not make sense

[PorreKaj]

Indeed that would be great.
Having the timer reset though, is different behaviour from how the web-client work, whatever solution you end up doing, it might be prudent to the app and web versions behave alike as default :-)
