Description Tobias Sekan 2025-09-26 10:41:58 UTC

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kasts podcast application
2. Adjust the volume using the internal volume slider (e.g., set to 75%)
3. Close the Kasts application completely
4. Restart the Kasts application

OBSERVED RESULT
The volume setting is reset to 100% every time the application is restarted, regardless of what volume level was set before closing the application.

EXPECTED RESULT
The volume setting should be saved and restored to the previously set level (e.g., 75%) when the application is restarted.

The issue appears to be related to the application's settings persistence mechanism not properly saving or loading the volume configuration. This affects user experience as users need to readjust the volume every time they start the application.
