Spotify cuts out when opening ST3

Johnny67

Hi Peter,

I have a small issue with ST3. I use Spotify for background music, but the moment I open ST3 to select a soundtrack, Spotify cuts out for a second. The same thing happens when I exit ST3—Spotify interrupts for a second again. This issue appeared recently, it wasn’t there before.

Is there any solution for this?

Best regards.

Johnny67 solution is, place your background music in to ST3 playlist and rely on ST3 totally.
I would never rely on internet based anything for gigs for numerous reasons.
If you are using Spotify it means you don’t need reliability and a small changeover glitch should not be a major problem. Apples operating system is constantly changing so I rather stick with one reliable program to handle all my audio needs , even then things could change with updates.

I don't think there is a solution. This happens during the initialization of the audio engine. iOS seems it needs to stop audio output to reconfigure the audio session for ST3. Most likely a change in the way audio sessions are handled in one of the recent iOS updates.
