Random Music Playing During Ads

Random Music Playing During Ads

This has been recently happened, sometimes when an ad starts playing while I'm listening to a playlist on Spotify, a random tune starts playing while the ad is playing and sometimes long enough to the start of a song. The tune sounds like something you'd hear at a stereostypical carnival, like the ringtone "By the Seaside" on the iPhone.This is strange to me because the tune only plays during an ad on Spotify, never anytime other than that. I considered it to be a virus on my computer but it only occurs when I'm running Spotify. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be? A virus or...?

Yea I've been having this problem too. I think it is only from Spotify because when i open up my volume mixer, its always Spotify that's making noise when it starts playing. And it still plays even when I've paused my music or the ad that's playing. I thought maybe it was those video ads that are usually muted in the player, but it doesn't seem to be coming from those either :c

This has been happening to me too, I know its spotify because I've closed the window in the middle of it and it stopped. I don't know what's causing it though? It seems to only happen during the ads, but not every ad or even a specific ad. It's not the biggest deal but it can be somewhat unsettling sometimes. 

It happens pretty rarely and goes away after a few seconds, but nevertheless, it is still annoying
