2. Start playback on a Raumfeld speaker with Spotify Connect
3. Exit (background) the Spotify app
4. Push volume up/down buttons or rotate the hardware knob on a Raumfeld speaker

 

Expected result:

Nothing should happen

Happens since the introduction of now playing being visible and controllable on lock screen for Spotify Connect. Before the lock screen feature was only available for local (phone) playback.
