Anyone else having issues with Audible since upgrading to 8.1 with cyan? The app simply won't play anymore. I've tried uninstall and reinstall and it just just hangs when I start my book. I'm on an AT&T 1520.
I am a die hard Audible customer, and the state of the WP Audible application makes me want to puke. Half of the time on my 1520, I hit play and nothing happens. I mean, the icon shows playing but nothing is happening. Then, out of the blue it will start to play. Further, there are numerous times the book will start over and my place is lost. I experience none of these issue on my work issued iPhone. The experience is smooth as silk. How about that...

This is a Nokia related problem for sure. On my Samsung Ativ S audible works 90% of the time, but on my Lumia 930 i hit play and the app die
I also have Lumia 1520 running WP 8.1 Cyan and am having issues with the Audible app. I reported the issue to Audible and this is the last response that I received:
Thank you very much for the reply and feedback regarding the behavior. Please note the developer preview is basically a Beta Version. The mobile app cannot be based off changes within the Beta, as usually the final release goes through more changes. The behavior the app is encountering seems to be in relation when its attempting to sync the positions of the audiobook with our services. If a book is downloaded and played, it will play through successfully, until the item is paused, and then resumed. I apologize there is no estimated time on when the update release will be available to address the behavior. Once an update is provided, notification will be sent regarding the audible app on Windows Phone. If you have any further questions, please reply to this email so I may further assist you.
Needless to say, I'm not holding my breath for the update!

There are other issues that may be related to those noted. Send audible a bug report (ellipsis > settings and support > help > send bug report) and add "customercare(at)audible.co.uk" to the cc field. You can try resetting ( ....> help > reset app) the app and rebooting the device. Their dev team is taking issues for the app with these affected devices. Seems specific to 8.1 on 930 and 1520, maybe some 1020
