Thanks for the contribution!
I'd just like to move this setting to experimental and you'll need to clean up some code after merging/rebasing main.
2. The option is moved to experimental settings

Description
By default, Wholphin plays music with hardware audio offloading enabled. This delegates audio decoding to the device's hardware DSP, making playback stability highly dependent on the manufacturer's system audio implementation. On certain hardware (such as my TCL TVs, e.g., the Chinese Model Q9L Pro), this implementation causes music playback to hang indefinitely at 0 seconds.
