[Issue]: Shuffle option for a TV Show season always returns episodes in order

[adamantike]

Please describe your bug

Using the "Shuffle" option within a TV Show season returns the Season episodes in order (Random ordering is not being applied, even when the API receives it).

Using the Web interface, this is how the API request looks like when using the "Shuffle" option for a TV show (working as expected):

GET https://{host}/Users/{user_id}/Items?ParentId={show_id}&Filters=IsNotFolder&Recursive=true&SortBy=Random&MediaTypes=Audio,Video&Limit=300&Fields=Chapters&ExcludeLocationTypes=Virtual&EnableTotalRecordCount=false&CollapseBoxSetItems=false

The API request for the "Shuffle" over a single TV Show season is similar, only changing the ParentId. This call always returns items in order:

GET https:/{host}/Users/{user_id}/Items?ParentId={season_id}&Filters=IsNotFolder&Recursive=true&SortBy=Random&MediaTypes=Audio,Video&Limit=300&Fields=Chapters&ExcludeLocationTypes=Virtual&EnableTotalRecordCount=false&CollapseBoxSetItems=false

Reproduction Steps

1. Open Jellyfin using the Web or Desktop client.
2. Go to any TV show with multiple seasons.
3. Go to any of the seasons, and use the "Shuffle" option.

Expected: A random episode from the selected season starts playing.
Actual: The first episode from the selected season starts playing.

Can't reproduce on 10.9.2

I can confirm this no longer happens. Endpoint is now /Episodes instead of /Items, so it seems the big 10.9 changelog fixed it!
