Research direction

The bug is in the Subsonic client code path that handles song ids from an Aurral server; the payload does not name a file, so start by searching the Kotlin sources for Subsonic id handling and the place where songs are filtered out before playback. Reproduce with an Aurral instance or a mocked Subsonic response containing a non-alphanumeric id, and check that such songs are no longer skipped. Done when those songs queue and play, and a test or note covers the id format.
