Description of the bug

The Roku client app will not resume Audiobook play. It always defaults to "start from beginning".

Reproduction steps

  1. Log in to Jellyfin on Roku
  2. Navigate to an Audiobook that has been listened to on another client.
  3. Play the audiobook

What is the current bug behavior?

Audiobook always starts at the beginning regardless of previous elapsed time listened.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Option to "Resume from previous spot" or "Start from beginning" would be displayed.

The option selected would drive the behavior of the playback.

Roku has supported this since version 3.0.0. Have you confirmed your "other client" is setting the playback resume point? If you bring up the book in the web client, does it start from your expected resume point?
