My Question or Issue
Spotify won't stop playing when connected to the car stereo via bluetooth (Ford Focus 2009 Sony CD player, the newer one).
1) When i hit pause, it pauses for 0.5 secs and resumes. Rarely for longer, but resumes anyway.
2) If I force-close the app, it will reopen and reconnect again in a few dozen seconds with the same issue.
3) If pausing via a notification tray or Waze, it often won't even register that I hit the pause button.
4) Voice nagivation alerts or phone work fine, it's just Spotify not being able to pause. Which is extremely annoying, so I have to disconnect BT in order to have it stop playing.
5) Opening Spotify and/or Waze prior to turning on the engine doesn't help.
6) There is probably no way to pause via car controls. At least I haven't figured out how. Other car controls work, e.g. volume or next track.
Is there any way to fix this? Otherwise, I'll just have to uninstall it as it's unusable. 😞
Thank you!
