Description KDE Neon user 2016-09-12 17:46:22 UTC
Seekbar won't work properly after skipping multiple times.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Play a long audio file on a program that is supported by the system tray media player. I use Audacious Qt and listen to 1+ hour-long podcasts.
2. Use the system tray media player to skip to and go to back to different parts of the file


Actual Results:  
The seekbar eventually stops working properly. The marker goes back to the beginning of the seekbar even though it should be in the middle of it.

Plasma: 5.12.1

Frameworks: 5.43.0
Qt: 5.10.0
Kernel: 4.14.19-1-MANJARO
OS: Netrunner Rolling

I can confirm this behavior with a 1 hour long mp3 using elisa 0.2.0 on Neon 5.13.2 UE.

Skipping through different sections of the seek bar will eventually fail returning the small cursor (circle) to the beginning of the bar, reporting the incorrect length and position of the player. 

This can be related to the bug #376106 on this same component. Since both bugs once triggered return and try to return the player to minute 0:00.
