Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/lox-audioserver/lox-audioserver/issues/177
While making tests for another issue I found a new issue. When I start fresh and play a Spotify song it works. It works also if I select a new song, while one is already playing. When I pause now the song and then select a new Spotify song, the new song does not play, only the metadata is send to the player but no audio.
To make it work again, I have to play a radio station, local file or wait that the player resets itself after a timeout.

It works now to play a new song after the first one was paused, but when the "new" song starts 3-4 seconds of the old song are played first.
If I change from one song to the other (by clicking on the new song), then there is a small silence gap in the moment I click the new song, then 3-4 seconds of the old song are played and then the new song is played.
This could match the behavior of the start delay if no song was playing before.
The log contains: Song playing -> pause song -> start a new song

this should fix that issue:

Song plays -> pause -> Click on new song: a few seconds of the old song play, before the new song starts
Song plays -> click on new song: There was a short silence, but the song did not change. Only the metadata of the new song is shown in the player, but the old song keeps playing. The stop command takes now also longer then normal, about 4-5 seconds. It does not matter which song I try to play, the playing song locked somehow in.
In reference to the previous log, no matter what I click, always the same song keeps playing.
After restarting only the Lox Audio Server docker container was restarted and the operation turned normal again.

This behavior changed now a bit. I now hear very often a tone change of the song, since Sendspin for any reason needs to correct the timing. This takes often between 10 and 30 seconds, but let's fix the other problem first, maybe then this solves automatically.
When changing directly from one song to the other, now the behavior is as following: song playing -> 1 second gap -> 0.5 seconds of the old song playing -> 1 second silence -> new song playing
Expected behavior would be just the new song to start playing with one single small silence point.
