My Question or Issue

Haven't figured out the exact steps but:

I started the morning playing music on Linux with the mini player open. Before stepping away I entered the Spotify iOS app and used "connect" to switch playing to the cell phone.  I then put the laptop into sleep/suspend mode.  Listened to cell phone for several hours.  Came back to the Linux machine, turned it back on and unlocked at login screen.  Went to the iOS Spotify app and used "connect" to switch back to the Linux machine for playback. Playback resumed on the linux machine.  But then I noticed the miniplayer closed.  Just clicked on the miniplayer icon to restore it.  But thought I should report it closing unexpectedly.
