Hey @ClaudeDunn,

Thanks for the post!

Can you clarify if you're playing music from Spotify via Bluetooth on your Car radio, or we've misunderstood that?

If that's the case and you switch off the power of the car radio, the playback on Spotify will pause, as it detects that the connection with the speaker is disrupted. There is no way to switch this app behavior off. It's the same as pulling the audio jack out of the phone or speaker.

We'll be on the lookout for your reply.

Hi @ClaudeDunn,

Thanks for the clarification.

There is no way to fix this from within the Spotify app. When it detects that the BT connection is broke (when the speaker is disconnected or powered off) it will pause play. 

You can try to force stop Apple Music, but the Spotify app will still pause.

Don't hesitate to reach out again if you have questions.
