Track info update stops

Device

Oneplus 3T A3003

Operating System

(Android 9 - Oxygen OS 9.0.6)

When I use the spotify client in the car with bluetooth connection to the car radio, the track info update on the car display stops when I press the track change buttons. (Next track for example) While I don't change the track, the update is fine, but after that it stops working. (The display will always show the title, artist and album of the current track, and this display will not change.) My current client version is 8.6.62.1029, but when I upgraded to the previous version the display went bad, before that it worked fine.

This feature works well with other player programs, e.g. Rocket player, Youtube.

The bug is still present. Usually the first 1-2 track changes are followed by the display, but then it stops. It seems to count the elapsed time, but always shows the length of the track where the display stopped.

This is happening with me since latest updates and across multiple vehicles. Any updates from anyone?

I think I have an idea for this. I installed the lite version and it started to work in my car
