Hi! What’s not quite right with Roon?

· None of the above quite fits

None of the above quite fits

· None of these quite match

Tell us what's going on

· Roon ARC: Android "Back" gesture often closes the app entirely instead of navigating back within the app

Tell us about your home network

· irrelevant.

Repro steps:
1. Be on the ARC home screen
2. navigate to an album or artist screen (or any other type of screen that pushes to the navigation stack)
3. open the now-playing drawer from the bottom
4. use the system "Back" gesture. this dismisses the now-playing drawer
5. hit Back again

Expected: you are navigated back to the home screen
Observed: the app exits

This is extremely frustrating and affects me every day.
