It’s a Discord-Spotify integration feature! If you share your screen or go into a voice chat, Spotify pauses to avoid licensing issues.

When Discord detects other audio activity (like voice chat), it pauses Spotify to avoid overlapping sound. It’s like a considerate DJ!

Because Discord loves drama and doesn't want Spotify stealing your spotlight!

Discord pauses your Spotify when you talk in voice chat to avoid copyright issues and keep your music from playing over your voice. You can disable this feature in Discord's settings if you prefer uninterrupted tunes.
