Player Widget does not synchronize with Media Player

Sometimes if I leave the device for a few hours without playing music / pausing. If I go to Spotify to change playlist, and when I return the Player Widget is still stuck on previous song, and not responsive. My current solution is to restart the app. Maybe there can be a little button to force refresh/reestablish connection with Media Player?

I also notice this, I suppose it has something to do with Spotify itself desyncing. I tried removing battery optimization to no avail. It would be cool if the app could "keep spotify awake", but I don't know if its feasible
