Randomly started getting 403 Error on old project after authorizing with different App

Hello all, I hope someone can give me some insight into this issue. I have 2 different apps on the developer dashboard currently. Both of these use the playlist-modify-private scope. App 1 has been working great for months until I also authorized App 2 today. After I authorized with App 2 and created a playlist with it, App 1 is now returning {"error"=>{"status"=>403, "message"=>"Insufficient client scope."}}. I cannot stress enough that I have not changed this code in months so something wonky is happening here. I tried clearing my cache and revoking both App 1 and App 2 on the 3rd party app page. Has anyone come across something like this before? I am really at a loss here.

EDIT: Ok I have no idea why, but I was able to create a public playlist with App 1 and then switched it back to private and it's working again. Weird!
