Randomly jumping seconds

Randomly jumping seconds

Hello everyone,
Some days ago Spotify started to randomly skip seconds of a song. It's not happening on every song neither at every moment of the song. It's just happening at any moment that the song jumps for example from second 0:21 to second 0:27 without any human interacion. 

I've tried removing the cache, removing and reinstalling the application through Snap and manually downloading the .deb file, but nothing has worked and the issue stills happening.
