Android: Pandora won't resume after call

[KLaw37]

I have this same issue when it runs through the Bluetooth in my car and like you I do not have this problem through my earbuds. Unfortunately, Pandora will not restart at all even if I close the app completely and open it up again it won't play at all. So I have to disconnect my Bluetooth and reconnect it or restart my phone for Pandora to play again. It is so frustrating. And just for reference, my vehicle is a 2015 Ford escape with factory stereo. So I definitely think it's Pandora and not an issue with the car or the stereo itself. I have gone through all my settings through Bluetooth, do not disturb, the settings in Pandora and I cannot find a resolution.

Unfortunately, this did not help my situation which is pretty much the same. I have my phone on do not disturb but when I go through my Bluetooth in my car to listen to Pandora and a call comes in it gets rejected but Pandora shuts down and will not restart even if I close the app completely and start again it just won't play. So I have to restart my phone essentially to get it to work again

After clearing cache AND data, it does fine, but only for a couple days.

I spoke too soon. It's still not working. Is there a way to force pandora back to the foreground after calls and texts? This doesn't just happen in my car, it happens at home connected to Bluetooth speaker as well.  Please provide a fix, as this is so awful.
