Autoplay not working after fresh install

@Mihail, thanks for your quick reply. I'm not sure about Podcasts, my issues happens on general songs. I have tried what you said and the issue persists, I reinstalled Spotify on my laptop but it didn't solved the problem. Here are the screenshots you asked for, in this case I looked for this song and as you can see is the only one in queue playing on and on.

 

Steps to reproduce it:

-Look for a song using the search bar

-Tap/click on that song

-When that song ends or if you click on next the same song keeps playing

Hey everyone who's having this problem.

 

Try to do this:

1 - Keep the Autoplat flag on

2 - Change the status of the "gapless flag", e.g if it's on, turn it off, if it's off, turn it on.

3 - play the last song of any playlist (you can skip to the last seconds)

4 - change the status of "gapless flag" again

5 - repeat step 3 and see if it works

 

I did and it work for me and I'm extremely happy right now. 

 

To the devs: you probably changed some flags in the code and this is messing with everything... Maybe because of this ambiguous flag name

How can they say this has been fixed when nothing has changed.  Spotify still autoplays every time I finish a phone call or a Zoom meeting even if it was not playing before hand.

 

This is a really annoying BUG

The autoplay isn’t working and when I play a song it only plays 10 seconds in and then stops. I can literally not listen to music, and it’s extremely annoying at this point. I’ve tried to update, log out, restart the app, restart my phone and nothing works. Please fix this.

Seems you got enough votes, no?

For some reason it's working for me know, you have to 'play' disabling both, Shuffle and Repeat options, look for a song, wait until it finishes and Boom, the autoplay is working. Thank you guys!

Auto play is not fixed. I have a Sonos system, and after the playback, the playlist ends. It’s a Spotify issue, even though Spotify will

blame Sonos. 
With the exception of Pandora, I have used every other streaming service. IE: Apple Music, Amazon Music, and YouTube music. And auto play has zero issues when streaming  from my Sonos system, it is only Spotify (Play 5). I even went so far is connecting from a line-in with Sonos, and auto play does not work. Hopefully a fix comes soon.   From what I am seeing, there is already a thread here regarding this issue. And it dates back from 2 years ago. It seems it’s not important enough to Spotify to fix auto play on Sonos.
