Inconsistency in "Now Playing View" Sidebar: Album Title Persists after Album Completion

Inconsistency in "Now Playing View" Sidebar: Album Title Persists after Album Completion

I would like to report an issue with Spotify's "Now Playing View" sidebar. Specifically, there is an inconsistency in how the album title is displayed above the current song when playing a full album.

Currently, when playing an album, the title of the album is appropriately shown above the current song. However, once the album has finished playing and transitions to individual songs or playlists, the album title continues to persist above the new songs. This behavior seems illogical and confusing, as the album has already been completed and is no longer relevant.

Expected Behavior: After the album finishes playing, the album title should no longer be displayed above the subsequent songs or playlists in the "Now Playing View" sidebar. Instead, the focus should shift to the current song or playlist being played.

Steps to Reproduce:

- Start playing a full album on Spotify.
- Observe the album title correctly displayed above the current song.
- Let the album play until it reaches the end.
- Note that the album title persists above the subsequent songs or playlists.

In the previous screenshot you can see "BIEN O MAL" that is not a song of the "Antes de Ameri" album



Device and Platform Information:

Device: Windows PC
Operating System: Windows 11
Spotify App Version: Spotify for Windows (32 bit) 1.2.14.1149.ga3ae422d

Please note that this issue occurs consistently on my device, and I have verified it across different platforms. I believe addressing this inconsistency will improve the overall user experience by providing accurate and relevant information in the "Now Playing View" sidebar.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I hope this issue can be resolved promptly.
