Stop auto play in car

[wrennegade]

Hello,

I am having an issue with Spotify automatically playing when it connects to my car sound system via Bluetooth. I do not want it to auto play. 

Even if I pause the current song manually and close Spotify completely it will still resume playing automatically when it connects to the car stereo. Even worse is when I pause the song manually and then use voice recognition to send a text Spotify will automatically start the song where it left off even though I had manually paused it before. I tried turning off the auto play feature in settings and I disabled car play in my phone settings. There is no setting on my car stereo to disable auto play. 

It is extremely annoying and I don't see myself paying for Spotify much longer if I can't get around this.

I tried searching for a topic with the same problem here but could not find one.
