My Question or Issue
When listening on a album in Spotify with remote playback on Chromecast, the shuffle function stops working. It works fine as long as I not close the Spotify app on the phone.
How to reproduce the issue:
1. Open Spotify on the mobile device
2. Select a album and start play the sing
3. Enable Chromecast playback
4. Enable shuffle ( and confirm that the indicator stays enabled)
6. Close the Spotify app on the mobile device
7. Let the song play till it changes to the next track
What I expected should happen?
Play the tracks in a shuffled order
What did haplen?
It plays the tracks in normal order
Shuffle works as it should when I play the songs with local playback.
Chromecast audio firmware :1.36.141215
Chromecast country: NO
Spotify version: 8.4.77.779
Android version: 8.0.0
Samsung SM-G965F (Galaxy S9+)
