Galaxy s3 pauses playing

Galaxy s3 pauses playing

Hello,

I've been using Spotify for months, previously on Galaxy S2, now on S3. For now (S3), I have a problem with "auto-pause" - Spotify pauses playing even 3-4 times per song - as if the headphones were pulled off or sth. It needs going back to the phone, to the app, and pressing "play" - then plays again till next "auto-pause". I'm using this app while running, so that kind of malfunction is really annoying...

 

Galaxy S3, Android 4.1.2, Spotify ver. 0.7.3.636.ga3aacdd3, Premium account, tried 3 pairs of headphones including Bluetooth Motorola S9 - all the same, so it's not a headphone issue.

Hi. Can you reproduce this by vigorously shaking your phone while music is playing? Does it do this with other music players? Have you tried turning off motion settings?

Forgot to add: Pauses streamed songs as well as downloaded ones (playlists).

Shaking test - passed - nothing happened. Have downloaded and run Deezer app - no pause issue. Have started Spotify then - listening to for 30min. without pause effect... WTH? 🙂
