[iPhone 6/iOS 8] Spotify app doesn't resume playing music when reconnecting over bluetooth

Sometimes for some reason, the Spotify app is no longer "open" on my iPhone.  This can happen anytime of course, but it's most annoying when I get in the car and the phone connects via bluetooth.  I expect that the app is still running in the background and that it'll resume playing wherever it left off, but in fact I have to go manually open the spotify app, select my playlist again, then pick the song again.  I know I'm re-opening the Spotify app because I see the logo screen first, for about 3-4 seconds.  If I were simply bringing the app to the foreground, it just opens to the last playlist I was on (for example) rather than falling to the Spotify app homepage.

 

What's going on here?  Is there a super frequent update being automatically downloaded/installed for the Spotify app?  That's the only thing I can think of that might cause this issue.

 

FWIW with the same car and phone, I used to have seamless resume of playback with none of this fiddling required.  I just got in the car and drove.  That's how it should be, right?

 

Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
