Shuffle keeps playing songs twice in a row. It's so annoying!

From searching the web, it looks like this problem has been around for years without being fixed. Nearly every time I shuffle my library, Spotify starts playing each track twice in a row, which gets extremely annoying. A solution would be nice.
