DESCRIPTION:

The lockscreen media controls sometimes work with Android apps such as Spotify but eventually they just stop working or appear incorrectly.

PRECONDITIONS:

  • Jolla C
  • Install Android support
  • Install Aptoide
  • Install Spotify from Aptoide

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Launch Spotify
  2. Start playing music
  3. Lock the screen
  4. Listen to music for some time
  5. Unlock the screen
  6. Play a different song in Spotify
  7. Repeat from step 3.

EXPECTED RESULT:

Lock screen media controls should work correctly.

ACTUAL RESULT:

Either of the following two will eventually happen:

  • One of the playback buttons (play/pause, previous or next) disappears, even though you are not at the end of your playlist yet
  • The playback controls disappear entirely (but the currently playing song is still shown)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

If you "force stop" Spotify from Settings and restart Spotify, the controls will work again. Although they will eventually disappear again after some time.

REPRODUCIBILITY: always
BUILD VERSION & TYPE: 2.0.2.43
