Spotify App forgets what it was doing

I'm running the Spotify Android App on an HTC One X with Jellybean (4.1.1). When I go back to it after a brief period of inactivity (e.g. pause the music, go into the grocery store, do my shopping, go back to my car and open Spotify again), I find the app has forgotten what it was doing. I get the "now playing" screen, but it just displays the generic grey disc in a grey square. Below that is the message "Loading..." in bold type, and below that is another message "Loading..." in plain type. The time scale above the play/pause button shows 0:00 on the left side and 0:01 on the right side. If I press Play, the Play button changes to a Pause button as if music is playing, but no sound comes out and nothing else happens.

 

Whatever the app is "Loading" never loads. If I press the Play Queue button in the upper right-hand corner, I just get a blank, black screen as if the queue is empty.

 

The only way to get back to where I left off when I paused Spotify is to go back to the Playlist screen, scroll down to the last song I heard (if I can remember which song that was), and tap it to start it playing again from the beginning. This is annoying and inconvenient, and it certainly doesn't seem like Spotify is working the way it's intended to.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is it a known issue with a known solution? Thanks!
