Thank you for your response and for the helpful clarifications.

After extensive testing, I can confirm that the issue persists when using the
Snap package of Kasts, including the most recent version available in the edge
channel (24.08.1 at the time of writing). The specific problems observed are:

Skipping forward or backward by 10 seconds in a streamed episode does not work.

Manual seeking to any position in the stream fails completely.

Playback speed adjustment has no effect.

This behavior is consistently reproducible on a clean installation of Ubuntu
25.04, using the default PipeWire-based audio stack. The issue appears
independent of backend settings and seems tied specifically to the Snap
packaging or its confinement mechanisms.

To resolve the issue, I removed the Snap version and installed Kasts via
Flatpak from Flathub:

"flatpak install flathub org.kde.kasts"

With the Flatpak version (25.04.1), all streaming-related features work
flawlessly: seeking, skipping, and playback speed adjustment are fully
functional.

I am keeping Snap installed on my system, but I will continue using the Flatpak
version of Kasts, as it currently provides a more stable and complete
experience.

Thanks again for your attention to this report. I hope this information helps
isolate the problem further.

Best regards,
Alessandro
