SUMMARY
Audio backend selection not saved

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Default Flatpak on VLC
2. Change to either GStreamer or Qt Multimedia
3. Play a podcast
4. Close the app


OBSERVED RESULT
5. Relaunch Kasts
6. In settings/general, audio backend back to VLC

EXPECTED RESULT
7. Should keep selection made on step 2.

Same apply for playback rate. 
This parameter should also be saved so we don't have to select at each Kasts run.
