Spotify Web player stops 9-10 seconds in song after a couple minutes of playing

I've just been using premium a couple of days ago so I don't know if this is an old issue or not. The web player eventually stops playing 9-10 seconds in a song every couple minutes. When I tried using my phone to play those songs, they work and this issue does not occur. I know I have the option of just using the app on my laptop but the web player has a more user-friendly interface which allows me to navigate from playlist to playlist so please look into it.

Just so you know, this is NOT a new issue. I have had the exact same issue but using a chromebook. I have tried everything that has been offered for a "fix." NOTHING fixes it. It has been at least 2 or 3 months at least that I have had this problem. Unless Spotify WANTS to take this problem seriously, I personally think it will stay this way. I am a premium member and have been for many years. Right now I am just putting up with it. Having said that, I don't listen to my years worth of playlists or anything else for that matter much anymore on Spotify. Maybe time for me to move on.

this has been happening to me as well for a time now, as you said about 2-3 months. it does start playing after a 3-4 second pause in the song but it resumes playing immediately afterward so it was a bit annoying at first, but i've managed and now i just ignore it when it happens
