I have a very peculiar issue which I am hoping that someone can help me
troubleshoot.
I believe that the root of the issue may be with Spotify, but I am not
sure.

Here goes:
My wife has a Spotify account and uses her playlists for when she
instructs her group exercise classes.

I installed spotty on my LMS server using her account.

Spotify on her iPhone recognizes the 2 Marantz AVRs in the house for
output options when connected via wifi to the local network.  She has
never connected to either of the piCoreplayers on the network.
I noticed that the 2 AVRs are _still_ options when the iPhone is _not_
connected to the local wifi and the phone is using just data.  The app
is able to stream to them without any issue!
Can someone else confirm that is consistent with their phone?  I don’t
understand how it connects to local devices when it is not connected to
the local network. 
I have been able to 'forget' the 2 AVRs from the choices on Spotify when
using data, but they just pop up again and remain as choices when they
are selected when using local wifi.

So, here is the weird part.

I uses my android cellphone (Google Pixel 3A) to connect to LMS over
data by using OpenVPN and the VPN option on my router.  
I use Android Auto (in my Subaru) to play USBAudioPlayerPro through UPNP
on LMS.  Usually there are no issues.  

There have been times when my wife is miles away, using data, connected
to the gym’s Bluetooth on her iPhone, and her playlist will play through
the USBAudioPlayer app on my Pixel in my car, even though I have
selected something from my library!  Meanwhile, her playlist has stopped
playing in the gym!  Needless to say, she has found it to be quite
annoying as it interrupts her class.

At first I thought this may be an Android Auto issue, but the same thing
has happened when I use her car (which doesn’t have Android auto) and I
use VPN, Bluetooth, and Squeezeplayer and Material Skin. 

Has anyone else experienced anything like this?  It is quite bizarre! I
can supply more documentation if needed.
