The audio randomly cuts out part way through the song, like when you don’t have internet, but if you check the UI the song keeps “playing”. It’s really annoying to have to open the app each time it happens and to pause/play the song again.
For me, this seems to happen when I hit play on something that was previously playing (playlist, song) but not when I pick something new. Hopefully that helps others dealing with it, feel free to share any other patterns you notice.
Other threads I found while googling:
I have the same issues on Android 12. I just assumed Spotify had fucked something up again.
