[Chromecast] Visual information not being sent to monitor

Device: Nexus 5

 

Operating System Version: Android 6.1

 

Spotify Version: 5.1.0.849

Chromecast Firmware Version: 1.18.55065

 

Description:

Spotify for Chromecast for all the time I owned Chromecast, shown a fancy list of previous, current and next track.

But since about a week or two ago, this changed and now everytime I start casting audio from my chromecast, it just shows a big Spotify logo on black screen (music still plays through).

 

To reproduce:

  1. Play a track using Chromecast

Workaround:

None

Picture on screen is back here, too. I'm a pessimist by heart so I'll wait with the celebration. Looks promising, though.
