Running B266 (but these have been an issues for some time:

  1. I primarily shuffle downloads with Carplay. With a good network connection it takes quite a while for the shuffle to be ready to play, with a bad connection it won’t shuffle at all. Opening the ARC app directly on the phone seems to resolve the issue for some reason.
  2. Play pauses ok during other iOS audio events (e.g. reading messages) but does not resume after the audio event is complete.

(iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 17.4.1, multiple cars including '21 Jaguar F-Type and '17 VW Golf Alltrack).

The recent B273 seems to have increased the “cover errors” displayed in Android Auto. In previous builds the problem existed but was not frequent while with this one it happens more frequently.
When this happened, in previous builds, it was necessary to pause and resume the song to have the correct refresh of the cover. Now I have to do this more than once to display the correct cover because “refreshing” the cover often reloads an incorrect cover from another album
