Autoplay should start the next podcast at the beginning

When auto play starts the next podcast in a series, it resumes from where the last episode left off rather than starting at the beginning. This can be frustrating when re-listening, especially for shows with hundreds of episodes, as I often have to manually reset progress individually.

In some cases, back-to-back episodes start just seconds before the end - possibly due to auto play - causing them to play for only 2-3 seconds before skipping to the next. I can't think of a scenario where auto play should begin an episode anywhere but the start. Forcing auto play to always start episodes from the beginning would reduce manual effort and improve the listening experience.

I'm not even sure this should be a configurable setting, how does it make sense to ever have auto play start from where you last left off in an episode? If auto play starts an episode you are already re-watching, so just start from the beginning.
