Volume increase when switching songs and unpausing music (Stock Galaxy S6)

Volume increase when switching songs and unpausing music (Stock Galaxy S6)

I have a stock Galaxy S6. Newest versions of Android and Spotify, but this problem has been occurring since I got the phone last spring.

When I switch tracks, Spotify amps the volume up to shrieking levels for a second or so before regulating itself. Also, if I pause Spotify, then unpause it, the volume goes WAY up after 5 seconds or so. The only way to regulate it then is to pause/unpause Spotify again.

I have seen suggestions regarding the SoundAlive options for my phone. I assure you I have tried everything regarding that, and it seems you cannot delete or permanently disable SoundAlive. I have also opened up developer options to see if something can be done there. As soon as music starts, SoundAlive kicks back on.

I have searched up and down these forums, and even been on Android Discord chat trying to find a solution for this problem. Its hard to believe that this is only happening to me. Does anyone have ANY idea what's going on?
