Issue found on DATE. 3/20/2024

SDK Version:

Spotify Android SDK v0.8.0

OS Version:

Android Version 14 (Upside Down Cake)

Scope(s):

playlist-read-private playlist-modify-private playlist-read-collaborative playlist-modify-public user-library-read user-read-private user-library-modify user-top-read user-read-playback-state user-read-email

Steps to reproduce:

1. Connect the app remote:

   SpotifyAppRemote.connect(this, connectionParams, new Connector.ConnectionListener() {
       @Override
       public void onConnected(SpotifyAppRemote spotifyAppRemote) {
   
       }
   
       @Override
       public void onFailure(Throwable throwable) {
   
       }
   });

   Expected behaviour:

   onConnected or onFailure should be called

   Actual behaviour:

   On most Android 14 devices, neither is called. It doesn't even time out. It just never connects and never gives an error message.

@tim-ebner-exxeta Hi. I read the code in the link you posted but there is no way to get a reference to the SpotifyAppRemote instance in that code.
