Shuffle bug with Android + PC

blancPedro — Sun, 25 Dec 2016 19:37:00 GMT

I came across an unexpected and annoying behavior while using my PC to play songs and Android phone to manage the queue: the shuffle functionality only works in a subregion of the playlist.

I can reproduce the bug following these steps:
1 - On android, go to "your library > songs > shuffle play"
2 - Now a song starting with (let's say) T is playing, the "Next from:" list seems random
3 - Choose my computer from the available devices list

4 - Computer starts to play current song as expected, "Next From:" gets reshuffled and only contains songs starting on T

(nothing special with the letter T, just picked it because in that case the bugs becomes obvious due to many songs starting with "The ..." )

If I try to shuffle all songs when connected to the PC "Next From:" will be populated with a random mix of songs starting in A, B, C (the first songs in my library, therefore).

Is there a workaround?

Sorry if this bug has already been reported. Couldn't find a similar complaint or fix.
