Media Controller crashes when other app is playing

[kellertobias]

I have tried to write a server application that plays a given music playlist. However, when I pause and then play e.g. netflix on the chromecast, my the pychromecast cast's media_controller seems to crash and after pressing play on my server, the media cannot resume.

The error that is printed to the log is:
