When the AudioService.kt is called for the first time, everything works fine, but when you call it again, two TextView with the position and duration of the audio track begin to “blink”: first (for a second) they show the position and duration relevant for the previous service launch, and then (for a second) – for the current one. Together with them, the SeekBar “jumps”.
I really can’t understand how and why the system saves the ExoPlayer‘s position and duration from the already destroyed service (even after restarting the app).
