My Question or Issue

After upgrading to Windows 11, queued up podcast don't play. I have no problem to play a music playlist, they are playing as normal. But as soon as I play Podcasts, after the podcast episode that was playing, the second one in the queue don't start to play. It doesn't matter if it's one episode from the same podcast or if I queue up one from another podcast. I run into the same issue. 

On my other computer, with the same windows version, everything works. (Windows app store version 1.1.64.561.g71bd09eb-a). As soon I install the desktop version 1.1.64.561.g71bd09eb-a, I can reproduce the problem on that computer.

Hey there @97marno, 

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community. 

Just to make sure, have you enabled Autoplay in the app settings?

If so, it's well worth running a clean reinstall by following these steps and make sure to download the app again from the Microsoft Store.  

Let us know how it goes.

Yes, I have enabled autoplay. 

It's not the App store application that have the problem, it's the "fat client" that you download on the spotify website. 

I have also talked to some friends of mina and they can reproduce this problem in Windows 10 as well, so this issue isn't just Windows 11 as I first thought, it's something in the windows client relase with buildnumber 1.1.65.643.g2d707698-a
