Research direction

Start by locating the Android playback service and its media session, then trace how the queue, playback index, position, and shuffle order are saved and restored. Check the existing playback and notification tests, if present. Done means playback resumes after process death and reboot through the listed entry points, with state restored and no duplicate notifications or stale sessions.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
