Spotify connect with Philips sw750m

[Royuk]

When using either of my android devices (one tablet, one phone) and spotify connect to the Philips SW750M  (bargain £40 via amazon btw), the app freezes and won't let me do anything. no touch functions work at all. I either have to wait until android works out it the app has frozen and asks if I want to shut it down, or go into settings and closse it myself.

The app works fine when not using the connect function.

I contacted Philips support and they say it could be down to a recent app update. Anyone else experiencing the same? 

Thanks!
