Description of the bug

While playing a Jellyfin video on a Chromecast, and either stopping playback or disconnecting Jellyfin from the Chromecast (shutdown Jellyfin on Google cast), both the lockscreen notification and media controls gets stuck in the Android UI and never goes away.

The only solution is to FoceQuit the Jellyfin app, to make lockscreen notification and media controls from Jellyfin go away.

Reproduction steps

Open Jellyfin on your Android device
Press the Cast icon (top right)
Choose your Chromecast device (3rd gen for me)
Wait for TV image to change to Jellyfin Background
Play a video file
Stop the playback
Press either the home or back button to exit Jellyfin on your Android device
Media controls and notification never goes away

Open Jellyfin on your Android device
Press the Cast icon (top right)
Choose your Chromecast device (3rd gen for me)
Wait for TV image to change to Jellyfin Background
Play a video file
Press the Cast icon (top right)
Press the "Disconnect" button
Press the "Yes" button (Shutdown Jellyfin on Google cast?)
Press either the home or back button to exit Jellyfin on your Android device
Media controls and notification never goes away

Open Jellyfin on your Android device
Press the Cast icon (top right)
Choose your Chromecast device (3rd gen for me)
Wait for TV image to change to Jellyfin Background
Play a video file
Wait for playback to finish
Press either the home or back button to exit Jellyfin on your Android device
Media controls and notification never goes away
