Starting playlist from shortcut always starts from same song even when shuffle enabled

Description

When I use a playlist shortcut to launch a playlist, the playlist always starts with the same song, even when shuffle is enabled. Which defeats the whole point of shuffle.

Expected behavior

What I want to happen is that when when I click a shortcut icon for the relevent playlist, a random song is played from the playlist.

Actual behavior

playlist starts with the same song always, but then starts shuffling afterwords

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create playlist, enable shuffle
  2. Create shortcut for playlist
  3. click shortcut
  4. same song starts playing
