android browser: user clicks "video file" link; results in new "server session" -
i've been working serving video files android browser.
i've seen behavior don't understand.
if html has video url in anchor tag:
<a href="http://host.com/path/to/some/file.mp4">video here</a>
when user clicks link, (and android launches separate 'video player' app), see new "session cookie" on server side.

the second entry has different session id --i.e. different set of cookies.
in second request, "new session" , can't pass server side validation. (i.e. checking if user has access resource)
questions:
1) why 2 requests? 2) can media player pass in same set of cookies, i.e. re-use same session?
thanks
