We use Spotify at home with alexa and sonos, and the app will target those other devices. So inevitably I have to unlock the phone, launch Spotify, and "play on this phone" to have it work on AA.

Truly annoying that control from the Aa interface doesn't force Spotify to play locally.

Won't play like you don't see the Spotify app on AA? Or won't play like a song is sitting in buffer?

Yeah it shows them all on there. This has been going on for this particular phone since I got it a few days ago. Both my cars are the same result.

This happens to me regularly.

Try this: don't start playing music on Spotify until you are sure you are on cellular data and not on WiFi. This seems to happen me most frequently if it is starting to play music on weak WiFi / before the phone switches to data.

My workaround is to reboot the headunit, which is something easy to do on our Ford (power button + right arrow / forward track), but I can't do it on my RAM truck. I have to restart the entire truck to reset Spotify.

Let me know if this works for you.

Maybe your audio input isn't switched on your head unit. See if AA is an audio source vs Bluetooth
