Description b-jul 2025-05-13 19:51:16 UTC 
SUMMARY
When switching android’s user on my phone, the KDEConnect stop the media (twitch stream but I suppose others too) on my computer.
I suppose switching user stop or pause the application, and this in turn send a pause signal to the PC.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect KDEConnect phone with a PC (GSConnect)
2. On the PC watch a video (actually happens when watching twitch stream to me)
3. On the phone go to change the active user (to a one that does not have KDEConnect)

OBSERVED RESULT
The media on the PC stop/pause.

EXPECTED RESULT
I’m just changing my phone’s user, the media should continue. I did not press the notification’s pause button.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
GSConnect (PC): 50 (pop-os)
KDEConnect (Phone): 1.33.4
Android: 15 "GrapheneOS"
