Can't hear Spotify playing in car MINI over bluetooth

[NFern]

Hi there,

After the recent updates (think the one end of Jan/beginning of Feb) on android I can't seem to play Spotify in the car.

I have an android phone (OnePlus 3) - nougat - I can connect my phone via Bluetooth to my car (Mini One) and can answer / make calls over Bluetooth using car speakers but the moment I switch to trying to play music through Spotify app over bluetooth the car can't seem to find any details of the song I'm playing and njo sound comes out of car speakers even though my phone says it is connected to the car and shows on Spotify app as though it is playing. Is there a way to fix this issue? I've tried removing the app and re-installing it.

Kind regard,
Nicole
