Newpipe and Just (video) player have this function, but the former cannot play offline files and the latter cannot play audio files. I can rename the audio file to mp4 and play it in Just player, but it doesn’t have a background play option.
From what I’ve searched on the net, in both apps the feature us implemented from ExoPlayer. On F-droid, Auxio audio player mentions ExoPlayer, but does not seem to have the feature available.
Are there any foss apps that has the feature to Skip silence for audio files?

there is an ffmpeg flag to skip silences though it hasn’t worked all that well for me. I don’t know whether any audio player apps try to use it. In the worst case you could do something awful like run ffmpeg on a PC or under termux to make a new audio file with the silences removed, and then play that under some other app.

I don’t remember whether rockbox had that feature but I think efforts to port rockbox to Android eventually stalled due to technical obstacles. No idea whether newer Android versions could help with that.

Really?

Don’t think that this is true (unless we are talking about a fork that I am not familiar with). The FAQ has an entry on this and mentions that you need to use an external player. I use mpv and VLC.

mpv player should be able to do it, if you install the script.
Thank you.
Found one on the net to be added into mpv.conf:
