Two independent multi-zone bugs, plus operator-facing warnings, i18n, and
regression tests guarding the data contracts.
Bug 1 — per-item mute was a no-op end to end:
- GET /api/devices/:id dropped the `muted` column from its assignments SELECT,
so the dashboard toggle never reflected state (the muted=false case in
particular). Column restored to the device payload.
- Android player now honours the per-item mute flag for YouTube (initial state
+ live via the IFrame JS API).
Bug 2 — items whose zone_id belongs to a different layout were silently dropped:
- Player fallback (web + Android): an orphaned zone_id is recovered into the
largest zone instead of vanishing, with telemetry.
- server/lib/zone-validate.js is the single source of truth for the orphan rule
(zone not in the device's active layout); used by the device payload
(per-item `orphan` flag + `active_layout_zones`) and the device list
(`orphan_count`).
- Assign-time hardening: a stale zone_id (not in the device's active layout) is
cleared to null on POST/PUT rather than persisted as a new orphan.
- scripts/find-orphan-zone-items.js: read-only sweep for existing orphans.
Dashboard warnings (operator-facing, never on the live player):
- Per-item badge + reassign affordance, device-list glance, preview banner.
- Graceful degradation: the zone selector falls back to /api/layouts/:id so it
can't vanish on a stale payload.
i18n: orphan-zone strings added to en/es/fr/de/pt/it (hi falls back by design;
count strings interpolate through tn()).
Tests: server/test/device-zone-contract.test.js adds 5 regression tests for the
data contracts above (muted true/false round-trip, active_layout_zones, orphan
flag + count, orphan-clears-on-reassign, assign-time clearing). 172/172 pass.
