Shuffling is simply terrible

Shuffling is simply terrible

The shuffle function barely even attempts to shuffle my music. I have a large chunk of one artist, followed by a chunk of another, and so on. This is not shuffling. Is there some setting I'm missing here?

That's an interesting error. Question: how often do you listen to the songs that keep showing up in your shuffle queue?

Well, my playlist is about 150 songs and I always shuffle the whole thing,
so I would listen to everything equally if not for the bad shuffling.

I find that if I haven't listened to certain songs when I shuffle that they keep appearing towards the front of my queue. Maybe the bad shuffling is compounding this issue, sounds like an error in the algorithm.
