VLC switches from 'video as audio' to audio, on resume

Description

VLC switches from playing 'video as audio' track to audio track, on resume. Take a look at how to reproduce section.

Expected behavior

Resuming should start reproducing the same audio track that was played before pausing.

Actual behavior

Reproducing random audio file.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set video to play as audio & play it
  2. Pause it through "notification playback widget"
  3. Switch to another app (set it in foreground)
  4. Through gesture's navigation buttons (see all background apps) and discard VLC
  5. Now go back to "notification playback widget" and press play to resume 'video as audio' reproduction

Outcome (on my end):

  1. VLC started playing audio file (looks like random choice) while 'video as audio' was entirely discarded
