Steps to reproduce

  1. Start playback at 10:00.
  2. Skip/seek forward to 30:00.
  3. Observe that total listening time in stats increases by 20 minutes instead of only recording actual time played.

Expected behaviour

Statistics should only record actual elapsed audio playback time, ignoring any skipped segments.

Current behaviour

Skipping forward in an episode (e.g. jumping from 10:00 to 30:00) adds the entire 20-minute skipped gap to total listening statistics.
