Root cause:
"Watch from beginning" = seek(0, keepPause) → the main player is detached and, because position 0 has a DAI pre‑roll ad, a second player (PLAYER[2]) starts on the shared single pipeline.
The auto‑resume ("buffering‑before‑play") is armed only in InterfacePlayerRDK::Configure() via buffering_in_progress=true + buffering_target_state=GST_STATE_PLAYING.
A reused pipeline skips Configure() (not creating GstPlayer for PLAYER[2]); reactivation instead runs AampStreamSinkManager::SetActive → InterfacePlayerRDK::Flush(), which flush‑seeks to PAUSED and removes the buffering timer, but never re‑arms the resume.
Result: pipeline stuck PAUSED, cache full (4/4) but never injected → frozen ~15 min.
The fix (root cause, minimal, no regression)
Re‑arm buffering‑before‑play only on single‑pipeline reactivation, inside the existing guarded block in SetActive (next to ResetFirstFrame()):
