You have enabled smart queues when you reach end of queue it will queue new songs based on your settings.

I see. In that case, shouldn’t the rest of the favorites be added to the queue when starting playback from the favorites menu? That way it is consistent with the main UI.

It does in the limits of AA and the shuffling.

Sorry, I’m not sure what you mean. I don’t see any shuffle button for the entire favorites list, if that’s what you are referring to.

You can also just create a smart playlist and play it shuffled.
