Spotify connect stops working when i lock screen on second device.

Spotify connect stops working when i lock screen on second device.

Hi All. 

I am experiencing an issue when using Spotify connect and i would like to check whether its normal or not.

 

Situation:

I have my Galaxy Tab2 with Spotify connected to my home theater and then i have spotify on my Android phone.

I started using my phone to wirelessly control spotify on my tab with Connect feature. But when i lock the screen of my tab2 spotify stops responding to my phone.

It´s like my phone wont finde the tab2 on spotify connect.

The wifi on my tab2 is set to "do not sleep while locked".

 

So please let me know if there is a solution for this.

 

Thank you and regards,

Any help please?

This was by design but the most recent version of spotify apparently fixes this, as long as your Tab is plugged into a charger.

Thanks Joe. I will try plugging in my tab. 😉

Any way to stop this (without being on charge)?

Up. Same here.

I have BT headphones connected to my phone.

And i expect only to steer my phone (spotify on phone) from PC when working on it.

But when phone locks its disconnects and starts to play from PC. Which is muted and i dont wont spotify to play music from PC.

I should have option to set from which source spotify should play sounds!

Fix it please!
