My Question or Issue

With Android 7 Spotify was allways running in the background, allowing my phone to find and stream to Spotify connect.

With Android 8 the TV shuts down Spotify connect when using other apps. That means that only Chromecast streaming is available for streaming music.

Any suggestions on how to install Spotify connect as a Service or any other suggestions on how to keep Spotify conect running
