If I remember, crossfade and gapless don't work for local files but should work on everything else. You should only have one of these enabled as they conflict.
That's odd. I just checked and crossfade works for me on downloaded spotify content.You checked that gapless is turned off?
Ah but I see your issue is with gapless albums, sorry. It could just be that the albums you're having issues with aren't encoded correctly for gapless playback. If that's the case, gapless won't work whether the album is downloaded or being streamed so maybe you could check if this is the case?
