"Send Shortcut to a specific App" not working after latest BTT Update

Describe the bug
I have been using the following setup since forever and it had always worked
Keyboard Shortcut:
Command+F8 (Play/Pause) > Send Space Shortcut to Spotify

Since last few weeks, it has stopped working. It only works if I have Spotify as the foreground application.

Have tried using other key combinations but facing the same issue.


Device information:

  • Type of Mac: M2 MacBook Air
  • macOS version: 15.4.1
  • BetterTouchTool version: 5.294

Mh I can reproduce that this only sometimes works, but I don't think there has been a change in BTT. Maybe there has been some change to Spotify.

However Spotify has good scripting support, you can use the "Run Apple Script" action instead:

tell application "Spotify"
	if player state is playing then
		pause
	else
		play
	end if
end tell

That works perfectly! Thanks.
