  • [x] I have double checked and can reproduce the issue

OS: Linux Mint

GPMDP Version: Latest (4.7.1)

Issue Descriptions: At times, YouTube Music will pop up a modal saying:

Listen on this device?

Your account is being used on another device. Listen on this device instead?

[Not Now] [Switch]

Listen on this Device

I have to hit the Switch button to start my music back up. I use only this machine with GPMDP / YTM, so I think the problem lies with how GPMDP integrates with YTM, and it gets confused somehow.

Steps to Reproduce: I believe that it usually happens when I've paused the music for a short time, then attempt to start the music again. I don't know if this contributes to the problem, but I use Global Hotkeys to do the pausing and unpausing.

I can confirm this exact issue on Windows, too. Would be nice if someone were able to look into it!

Not exactly an issue/bug for me, but it'd be great if this program could "Auto-Switch" when this notification appears. This way I don't have to flip back and forth to this program to manually click switch.
