This happens when you stream a podcast with automatically inserted ads of varying lengths. I assume the system swaps out an ad before you finish the stream, so your playback position gets shifted... The solution on any app is to download the full episode before playing.

I figured it was something to do with Sponsorblock or Adblock. Makes sense.

I wish we could block these ads! I've been thinking about how to build something that pulls multiple copies of the stream, compares the audio to identify the differences, then cuts out the bits that change - the ads. Someday...
