My Question or Issue

Recently, we found an issue in the internal test that Connecting a PC sharing and playing music via Spotify app, not display the screen sharing volume icon.

Reproduce path:

【Prerequisites】 Log in to the same Spotify account on both PC and mobile phone

【Steps】 Connect to PC sharing via Spotify app -- play music -- exit background and adjust volume using volume buttons -- observe

【Actual Result】 No screen sharing volume icon.

【Expected Result】Should have screen sharing volume icon.

After careful investigation, we found the cause is that The new version of Spotify (9.1.42.2058) does not create a ProviderServiceProxy when connecting to PC sharing, while the older version (9.0.32.624) does not have this issue.
