Ps4 Spotify tracks keeps pausing its self after 1-3 seconds of trying to play any track

[SCOTTYDP77]

My spotify app on my ps4, every time I try to play any of the music tracks 

 It just seems to pause it's self after 1 to 3 seconds of trying to play any track, it would be grateful if spotify could fix this bug issue because it is getting very annoying.

Read another post. Appears to be affecting ps4 and samsung tv. It is the same on my Samsung tv. Seems to be since the last update it broke!

Hello

I have the same problem with my xbox. The Spotify App pauses after one or two seconds.

I'm having the same issue however as a temporary fix I found that using the spotify app on your phone to send a song to your ps4 device makes it work again. I have no idea why or how it's just a little fix i use until we get an update.

Same here. Didn't realize it was Samsung TV specifc. It was working fine on my PS 4/ I bought a PS 4 Pro last week and it plays 2 seconds and pauses. I have a 2015 4K TV and the latest PS4 Pro. I like to listen to Spotify while playing Catch & Release on my PS 4.

I'm having the same problem.  I found that if I spam triangle (rapidly pausing and unpausing) after awhile it'll play sometimes.
