Song Radio started from local music does not stream properly

Song Radio started from local music does not stream properly

Hi there! Ran into what might be a bug in Spotify for iOS.

 

I used Spotify to search for a song. It was locally stored (in Spotify's local cache, it was a Spotify song that I had previously marked with a checkmark).

 

I started Song Radio based on this song, and it properly gave me a list of streamed songs that it was going to play next. All looked good.

 

However, when it came time to actually advance to the next track, it didn't work! Spotify ignored the Song Radio playlist and just chose another locally stored track to play.

 

The displayed playlist on screen, for the Song Radio station, did not change. If I touched a song manually in the playlist, it streamed normally. However, at the end of this song, Spotify once again ignored the playlist and went to another locally stored track.

 

Strange. Has anybody else had this problem? It's weird that Spotify would display the correct streamed playlist but then refuse to play the songs in the playlist without me manually having to click on each song (which is difficult and dangerous to do when driving, so I switched to Pandora instead, which worked normally, so it wasn't a problem with my Internet connection at all, as I had first thought).

 

Thanks!

Josh
