Google Play Music: Several seconds delay everytime a new song starts in offline mode.

[Johnny Sum]

Does this happen to anyone with GPM as well? When a new song starts or when I pause/play there is a noticeable delay. I am playing music in offline mode so this is not a buffer problem.
This is getting annoying and when my 1-month trial is over I might sign up to Spotify.

Welcome to Android Central! Are these songs you downloaded from Google Play Music, or transferred from your computer?

Try going to Settings>Apps, select Google Play Music>Storage, then Clear Cache. If that doesn't help, then you could try Clear Data as well, but you may have to re-download those songs again.
