Strange behaviour

Thanks for you great work and lightning fast support.
Please take a look at this video. It's a screen capture from my iPhone which shows strange behaviour of Spotify while connecting/connected with librespot. Same thing with other spotify-clients (e. g. on Win10 or my iPad). Any idea why the player hides for a few moments when connecting or skipping?
Doesn't happen when player goes to the next track by itself.

That's because of the loading state. When librespot is loading a song, it triggers the loading state to let the client know it is doing something. Unlucky Spotify makes the entire UI disappear.

I should probably make this optional so that users with slower connections can enable it to avoid state corruption.

I had the same issue on Android. Even with good connection, but with the last update of Spotify on Android the problem just disappeared.

This can now be toggled with player.enableLoadingState.
