This is probably stupid, but when I press shuffle keybind (C-s), it opens up a shortcut menu and there is no shuffle option. Can someone please clarify the shortcut?

which shortcut menu does it open? Is it similar to the one below?

If not, I guess C-s is probably the shortcut to open a shortcut menu for your terminal. You can bind Shuffle command to another key in your .config/spotify-player/keymap.tom. More details: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/blob/master/doc/config.md#keymaps

I don't think it is a terminal shortcut menu, as it has details such as sorting by album and artist name. Here is an image

So I changed the keymap.toml so that the shortcut for shuffle was "s h", and now it shows up in the shortcut menu:

Oh I see. I think it's because the app or the terminal doesn't recognize the control-s combination and it is parsed as a s key. That's why the shortcut menu for commands with s key prefix is shown. One possible workaround is to change the shortcut like u already did. Hope that's not too much of a trouble.
