Play queue stops if playlist filter is engaged

[JoeyC]

Description

What are the steps you took to get to the error/issue?

1. Select a playlist and play it

2. Open the same playlist, filter to find a track you want and queue up a track by long pressing and selecting "Queue." It is important that you do NOT hit "X" to reset the filter after queuing the track. It is also important that the same playlist is used.

3. Allow the queued track to start and then play to the end

The execution will return to the playlist but the song will not play. If you look closely at the song that plays after the queued song - it's duration is displayed as 0.01 which indicates something is fishy.

Please note: this issue will not be reproduced if the filter is disengaged / cancelled before the end of the queued track.

What I expected to happen

After the queued track finishes playing, the player / control / execution should return to the playlist

Yes, it's good feature when you want to stop music after song ends, just search from dat playlizt :))

I use it a lot!

I'm going to assume you're not joking about calling it a feature. If that's the case, it's a poorly implemented feature because
1. This is inconsistent with how other players (for example, Poweramp) that successfully allow queueing work. Once a queued song has finished playing, it will automatically return to the playlist the player had deviated from. That is Starred Song 1 -> Queued Song -> Starred Song 2

2. The user is given no clue that the filter applies to the queue. The play queue does not suggest the playing will stop after the filtered songs have been played. That is, other songs are still in the play queue when the queue halts.
3. The behavior is inconsistent, doing one thing for the currently playing playlist and the complete opposite behavior for any other playlist. I keep an open mind, so if you can explain this to me, I am very receptive 🙂
4.When the play execution freezes on the next song in the queue and incorrectly displays the duration of this song as 1 second. To get the play started again, the playlist has to be reloaded

This bug/feature greatly reduces the usability of the queue.
