Spotify users are experiencing issues with locally stored tracks disappearing from playlists when accessed through Android Auto, despite these tracks remaining intact on their devices and functioning normally within the Spotify app. This problem has been reported by multiple users, indicating a potential communication issue between Spotify and Android Auto. Additionally, album art on the Android Auto screen is also missing, although it appears correctly in the task widget. Standard troubleshooting methods have not resolved the issue, and there is no acknowledgment or solution provided by either Spotify or Google. This situation coincides with ongoing connectivity issues and bugs affecting Android Auto, leading to user frustration. The root cause of the problem—whether it lies with Spotify or Android Auto—remains unclear.
