Why does my Cobalt function so poorly with audio player apps?

[Android Central Question]

I download long audio files eg podcasts for subsequent listening on commute.
My Cobalt cannot remember its correct point within a paused file.
Worse it cannot start playing from the relevant point selected on the time bar.
I have tried two different popular apps that have worked fine on every other phone or tablet I have used.
This is extremely frustrating.

Welcome to Android Central! Sorry, what's "My Cobalt"? Is that a media player app? Or the name of your phone?
