Came here to make the same issue, I keep getting surprised that it doesn't work!

@mattrossman @samsong @ElectronicNike @ariccb I added this feature in my latest release if you're still interested

@svr333 is there a setting I need to enable for that? I installed the release you linked, but double clicking on the audioband player doesn't open Spotify for me.

@mattrossman no it's on by default, I realized though it only works if you do not minimize the app, windows api only allows for it to be put on foreground if the app is still open :/

I did some digging and it seems to be possible to fix this, so that it will even open the window if it is minimized, but that's for next release I suppose, I can notify you if I ever get it properly fixed.

That would be great, thanks. I usually have Spotify minimized when it's playing while I work on other things :)

@mattrossman I got it working with iTunes and Musicbee but for some reason the Spotify application doesn't respond properly to it, I'll try a bit more though

Update: got it working on Spotify too but it depends on window title, which is bad, because it changes depending on whether it is playing music or not - so uh yeah, but Ill manage something normally

Update 2: I found a reliable way of doing it I think, I'll get a friend to test it on their setup too to make sure
