Bug: wrong subtitles in android app

Server Version#: 4.72.1
Player Version#: 8.28.0.30077

I have the plex app installed on my chromecast with google tv. It has troubles showing the right subtitles. In this case i’m viewing an episode of my own collection where there is multiple choices for subtitles in the file. Russian, English and Spanish. If I choose english it keeps showing the Russian ones. If i use the Plex web player from my PC and casts to the chromecast selecting the same subtitles it correctly shows the English ones. It also shows the wrong subtitles when playing it in the android app on my phone but if I then cast it from the phone to chromecast (also an older chromecast) it chooses the right subtitles. So this seems to be a bug in the android app.
Let me know if you need any logs or something.

Just found a possibly related post here: Android Update (Shield) Update, Randon Subtitles?

I have a similar issue on my Nvidia Shield. Plex client version 8.29.0.30433, server version 1.25.3.5409 (running on a synology 920+, dsm6).

My situation is basically exactly this post.

It seems to have started since I installed the android 11 update on the Shield, but I don’t use Plex regularly enough to say for sure.
