My Question or Issue

Spotify on android (samsung) breaking after a few mins in background. Losing all media controls of the app until device restart. 

Whenever spotify goes to the background for a bit it will eventually stop working where the song/episode keeps playing but I can't pause/skip and the app doesn't show what is playing either. The only fix I have for this is to restart the device but the problem will just happen again anyways.

I attached what it looks like when it breaks, even though the music is still playing.

Is there any fixes for this? Reinstalling spotify doesn't work. This is happening with Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra every time, and S21 once in a while but not every time.
