      Hello, recently I found out that if I enable and connect to VPN on the Opera VPN Pro client, I cannot play songs on Spotify. However, I can only play songs that are in the playlist I made and any song that isn't in my playlist including songs that come out by searching will not play. Strangely this does not happen when I listen to songs on the Web version of Spotify.

      Other VPNs as far as the ones I have does not cause this issue. Only when I connect to Opera's Pro VPN service that the issue appears.

          @idnhazel I had the same issue. Now I can play new songs that appeared after I searched for them.

          That's what I did:

          In Windows Spotify Player App

          • opened Preferences (CTRL + P)
          • Changed 'Proxy Settings', 'Proxy type' from 'automatic' to 'none'
          • 'Storage', clear cache
          • 'Storage', Remove all downloads

          In Opera

          • Disabled VPN Pro

          In Microsoft Windows

          • Closed Opera
          • Closed Spotify
          • Restarted Computer

          Please let me know if it works for you too.

          Android: EMUI 12.0.0
          Model: Huawei Mate 20 Pro (LYA-L29)
          Opera for Android Version: 73.1.3844.69816
