Chromecast disconnect when changing song on Android

Chromecast disconnect when changing song on Android

When playing Spotify on my Chromecast Audio using Spotify Connect from my Android, Spotify will disconnect from my Chromecast whenever I touch the Spotify app on my Android, stating that it's paused because my Spotify is being used somewhere else. So at the moment, I can't change songs without getting disconnected. Very annoying. It works well with my girlfriends iPhone though. Bug?

I have the exact same problem on my P20 Pro. Actually it is even hard to get a song to play on my chromecast audio. Sometimes I have to start a song on my phone first and then change to the chromecast to actually get it working on my chromecast, otherwise it will disconnect immediately. If I don't touch the spotify app afterwards, it will keep running through an album or a Playlist without any problem, but as soon as I try to change a song, it will disconnect again. Really really annoying. 

I am having the same issue, even reinstalled the PC app.
