Sync always fails on macOS #983

Description

On macOS, batch sync of multiple offline downloads always fails. Every item passes through "waiting to retry" and ends in "Failed" with no resume. Single downloads sometimes work (showing "waiting to retry" a few times but eventually complete).

After sync fails, the "Failed" state shows the progress it managed to complete (e.g. 70%), with pause and stop buttons. The pause button does nothing, and the only way to proceed is to click the stop button and restart it in the hope it completes this time.

Sync on other devices works without a problem. And jellyfin/reverse proxy shows no errors (only 200 and 206 response codes).

Fladder error logs in the app show only one error "SEVERE | Seerr server not configured".

Reproduction steps

1. Try to sync a few episodes on macOS.

I have found only this diagnostic report, but not sure if it's related. There are a few like this (file backed memory dirtied over ...), but they are not generated every time.
