My Question or Issue

I've searched through community threads, checked audio settings, reset password, rebooted router but still my audio cuts at 8-10 seconds. It isn't happening on any other devices. No settings have been changed, Spotify not being used on other devices, no software updates, it's a complete mystery. It makes no difference whether it's a downloaded or streamed track and I get no error message – audio just stops while the play continues.

Fixed! I rebooted the mac and it's fixed. All my software was up to date, but something must have been clogging up my streaming capacity.
