Spotify STOPS playing after 2 seconds

[ZolaGz]

So basically Spotify stops playing after 2 seconds and it doesn't matter which song it is.  And if I try to play the song that just stopped after 2 seconds it wont play it at all, I can skip 30 or 1 minute into the song and it wont play, this happens with EVERY song. 

A few songs that stops after the 2 second mark can be played again, but no sound, but if I go away from them and click on them again, they wont play at all.

I've tried to reinstall way too many times, relogging, restarting pretty much done everything. And it's a premium account, so it's not the high quality streaming switch thats the problem here.

Does anyone have a smiliar problem? or are able to atleast help a bit, its really frustrating

Hey @ZolaGz

Do you have any antivirus/firewall software? Please try to disable it.

Does that solved your problem?

[ZolaGz · Accepted solution]

Nope. But I found a solution my self. 

I went to Account overview and logged out on all devices after that I went to Offline deivces and removed all 3. I then reinstalled spotify and restartet med computer and now it works perfectly! 🙂 

- Been trying to fix this the past 2 hours tho.

I had the same problem and logging out of all other devices worked, thanks!

This is a relatively new problem for me, I've been a paid spotify user for a long time now and I upgraded to premium duo and I have this problem persistently, I get into my car and start driving and the music stops. I'm busy trying to play it again and again. This sucks. I end up switching to apple music which doesn't seem to have a problem, I guess I'll switch to apple music if this continues 😞

Hey @shobithalva,

Sorry to see this has been going on!
Could you tell us more details about the issue? Are you using a Bluetooth connection to connect to your vehicle or a cable?
Does it occur only when your device connects to the car? If you haven't tested this, if possible, could you please check?

Aside from this, I'd recommend testing if performing a clean reinstall of the app would change the described behaviour.

Many thanks in advance!

There is an issue if u play on device 1, close the app, and continue on device 2 with another song. It can be solved by either waiting like 5 minutes (but thrn it can still happen that it starts a random song last heard) or change the output device on device 1 before closing the app.
