Every once in a while Spotify just randomly stops playing music. Even if the screen is left on and Spotify is the foreground app, it will just stop playing music.
Sometimes I can rewind a bit and it'll start up again, and sometimes the "currently playing" area blanks out to gray and I have to exit the app completely.
Anyone else have this issue?

I was happy to see that Pandora recently released an official app for Google Android. I love Pandora and have been using it on my PC and my old Windows Mobile phone for a while.
Since I've been using Pandora on Android I've noticed a strange bug. After playing a couple songs through Pandora, the stock Music app fires up on its own and starts playing over the top of Pandora. This is extrememly annoying! I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this problem and if so, has anyone found a solution.
The obvious solution is to switch to the music app and pause the song that is playing over the top of Pandora. However, this often locks up both apps requiring me to power off the phone to get Pandora to work again - then repeat this process over and over and over. Help!
This happens to me all the time, but I've not had the lock up problem. I usually listen on my headphones, and the button on the adapter piece pauses the Music app, so I don't have to switch around. Hope that helps.
One annoying behaviour with XBMC/KODI (RC3) is that upon returning to home with a video still playing, if you open another app it continues playing in the background. This is undesirable and I would like the home button to also Pause/Stop video is this possible?
Hi, I noticed this problem while I was at the gym today listening to music.
When playing a song the song will play fine, but when the song ended and it was time to play the next, I noticed it was taking very long. So I opened up my phone and noticed while the song plays fine, and ends, the little timer towards the bottom would only be halfway through the song! In a 9 minute song I was listening to, the song had ended and when I checked the timer it was only at 3:24 seconds, anyone else experiencing this problem, and or have a fix for it? Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Greetings all!
I'm having a strange phenomenon when listening to music on my Pixel from Google Play Music (untested in other apps as I have all-access)... my music will randomly stop/pause. The app and persistent notification show the icon as if it's still playing (not paused or stopped) but there is no sound, seconds do not advance, never gets to the next song, etc. It's worth noting perhaps that this seems to happen towards the end of a song, for instance when there's maybe 20-30 seconds of the song left. I feel like it has something to do with whenever it might start to preload or buffer the next song in queue??
After I give the app a fresh restart it seems to work fine for a while.. anywhere from 15 minutes to hours. There seems to be no pattern that I can tell. The only other thing I'm thinking is that maybe an app I'm using is for some reason causing a glitch but I really only use like Facebook, Gmail, texting, calling, and a time clock app. I've never had problems until I got the pixel so it definitely seems somewhat device-specific.
It does this when listening to music thru BT or with headphones plugged in.
The quickest way I can fix this is to manually press Pause in Play Music persistent​ notification, and then swipe it away, press the Square and Clear All. With headphones I can just re-open Play Music and press play.. on BT I have to cycle BT off/on (I think, I actually don't think I've ever tried it without cycling BT), then re-open Play Music... Sometimes it will automatically continue where it left off when I re-open the app, other times I have to manually press play again. You can imagine this being quite annoying and potentially dangerous as it usually happens when I'm using BT in my car while driving.
I've tried clearing the cache, clearing data, and even a full wipe. I'm using Pure Nexus ROM currently, but had the same problem when trying Resurrection Remix. I have literally never used the stock OS, I rooted it the day I got it and installed unofficial Lineage... I don't recall having this problem in LOS but I only used it for a few days before trying PN, RR, and then back to PN.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Or does anyone have some potential ideas to fix the problem?
Mine does the same thing the fix for me is not use Google play music. Play music has done this no matter what ROM I was on
So I Spotify installed and downloaded some music for offline playing. Now, whenever I hang up from a phone call, Spotify starts playing on my watch. This is very annoying. Is there a fix for this anywhere?
