I have discovered that it doesn't seem to actually be a skip; it seems to be stopping the playback, recording the time it is stopped at, and then restarting the stream. 

For me it works the same way - KODI reloads the film. However, I don't have a 7-second shift back.
Maybe the problem is in Universal Parental Control addon?

You can also send me (preferably via issue to github) files from: .kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.audio.profiles/
