Pandora pauses playing on Alexa Show & Dot

SueD — Sun, 23 Mar 2025 19:31:08 GMT

I pay for Pandora Premium and when I try to listen to it on my Alexa devices it repeatedly pauses during songs. I tried downloading Spotify and playing that instead and it does not pause. So the problem is definitely with Pandora. I have tried all your suggestions - reboot router, devices, unlinking & relinking Pandora from Alexa, etc. We even upgraded our router speed. Nothing works.

I'm finding this extremely annoying especially since I pay for Pandora. Will you please fix this.

Hi @SueD

Welcome to community!

Sorry for any trouble when listening to Pandora on your Alexa devices. Do you find that this happens when listening to stations, playlist, albums or a combination of both?

Do start playback again do you need to Alexa a new voice command? And if you're trying to continue to listen to the same content, does it being playing the song again, start a new song or pick up where it left off?

Thanks for the help with these questions.
