Emby for Android 3.5.28 will not play songs -- just skips over them all.

[lomography 0]

Running Emby for Android 3.5.28 on a Tabwee T90 Android 16 tablet.  Emby server 4.9.30 running on my Raspberry Pi 5 NAS.  When it works, it works great.  But lately, can't get it to work at all.  It's always been iffy.

I choose a folder, click on shuffle.  No error message, but all the titles appear in the bottom bar.  They just flash by, it skips through all the songs in the directory, one-by-one without playing any and then just stops.  Very frustrating.  Tried restarting server, de-and-re Emby for Android, clear cache, start/stop app.  I've tried googling and perusing the forum for several weeks before opening a ticket, but can't seem to find others with the same problem.

I should mention, I also run Emby for Firestick on my four TVs and they work like a dream.  Also running Emby Windows 2.234.2.0 on several Windows computers.

It's just the Android on the Tablet that has never worked properly.

Any help would be appreciated.

I should also mention, I'm running Emby for Android 3.5.28 on my Moto G50 without issue.  So it looks like it may be an issue just with the tablet.  I was heavily invested in JRiver for years.  Emby is sooo much better.  I really want this to work.
