 ### Bug Fixes
-- Prevent dialog `showModal` from auto-focusing first input ([db777fa](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/db777fa))

-### Development / Internal

-#### CI/Build
-- Replace `uvicorn[standard]` with explicit Windows-safe extras; avoids uvloop cross-build deadlock ([28293c6](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/28293c6))
-- Move `pystray` into the unified cross-deps resolve so its Pillow matches the core one ([8450040](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/8450040))
-- Hybrid pip-download: single call for cross-platform deps (consistent `pydantic-core`), per-dep loop with `--pre` for Windows-only ([39b3aed](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/39b3aed))
-- Normalize non-PEP440 versions before stamping `pyproject.toml` ([69df9b6](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/69df9b6))
-- Pass `--pre` to `pip download` for winsdk beta wheels ([760c3df](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/760c3df))
-- Revert broken action caching (Gitea cache backend not configured) ([60f287b](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/60f287b))
+- Fetch playback status eagerly on new WebSocket connection instead of waiting for the next poll cycle ([d09a0b9](https://git.dolgolyov-family.by/alexei.dolgolyov/media-player-server/commit/d09a0b9))
