Music pausing while in other apps

[Cubeholic]

Spotify seemingly pauses music that is playing in the background while I'm in any other app. To fix this I open the apps in split screen view if it's supported, if not then it pauses and I have to switch back to the spotify app and it starts playing again.

Hello, @Cubeholic!

Here is what to try to find a solution to your issue: 

1. Try a soft reset. Press and hold the Home and Lock buttons for 10 seconds until the device reboots.
2. If that doesn’t help, try a clean reinstall. Be sure to locate and remove any Spotify folders or cached data from your device before reinstalling again. 

Let me know that goes 🙂 Have a good day!
