Pixel XL Issues

[602950482]

I seem to have few issues on my Pixel XL.

1. Widget control on lock screen and notification bar does not work. 

2. Music stops playing within Android Auto, I have to open up Pocket Casts, play something within Pocket Casts and then reopen Spotify. Note this doesn't work if I just open Pocket Casts and then revert back to Spotify. Also this issue doesn't occur with any other audio app.

I have tested Google Music and Pocket Casts.

3. Spotify doesn't always trigger the audio stream with Android Auto. So if I open android auto and then try to play music through Spotify, music doesnt play through my car. All other audio apps work. So I have to use another app to move the audio from car radio to Android Auto, then play spotify.

Android Version 7.1

Spotify version 6.5.0.1816

I hope that all makes sense.

Thanks
