4. Press on the vertical lines next to play
5. Press on More options at the top

• I made sure that there are no existing issues - open or closed - which I could contribute my information to.

Duplicate of a currently pinned issue.

Please search (better, with different keywords, particularly take these from first line of the error report/logs) for duplicates so as not to create new issues that have been reported before, especially check from pinned ones, next time when you want to open an issue. Thank you.
