When the home assistant app is opened from cold (after being forced to quit by swiping or not using for a period of time) once application opens it pauses media playback from services such as Spotify.

Open the application from clean start on iPhone with media playing in background.

Media will pause unexpectedly. You will need to click the play button and return to the app and it will continue to work unless the app is cleared.
