The Issue

Seeking in a MP3 (possibly other audio files too) doesn't work until the file plays all the way through

Steps to reproduce

Download lbry://curvedspace-scatter
Play file
Try to seek, seeking fails
Finish listening to file
Seeking now works.

Expected behaviour

Users should be able to seek as soon as they've downloaded the whole file (if not as the file is downloaded, but I know we have some issues with that ATM)

Actual behaviour

User isn't able to seek until after the file plays all the way to the end.

System Configuration

daemon (lbrynet) 0.11.0
wallet (lbryum) 2.7.25
interface 0.12.0
Platform Windows (Windows-10-10.0.15063)
Installation ID 2BX4AhDAHSJoPeyAjAU24B5H6qgRPUgWf92uX3iwLMvxPHPZSq9Vw4FmyXgysLG2hx

@benhohner this is because in some files the metadata is at the end and so unavailable when streaming.

@6ea86b96 I'm aware there's that issue when streaming, but this happens after the entire file has already been downloaded in a previous browsing session, and I'm rewatching it.

@kauffj this one appears to be fixed.
