Android Auto empty queue after selecting song in playlist

Issue description:

I open my music playlist from the Android Auto screen, select the song I want to play, and toggle shuffle. I start driving, jamming to the song until it ends. I expect the next song to be a random song from the playlist I opened, but instead silence. At the next red light I check the queue, and its empty; I now have to manually hit shuffle to play a new random song.

Yes this is documented in another issue, due to limitations in AA and smart playlists, clicking a song will only play that song.

You need to use the play buttons at the top to play the full playlist.

Thanks for responding so quickly. Apologies I didn’t see the other issue; do you have the link to it? Would love to learn more about AA’s limitations.
