I long ago got into the habit of waking up my car before I get into it. Sometimes just a minute or two before or usually several minutes before to engage climate control. 99% of my listening in my car is from a USB flash drive with about 9,000 songs and it never has an issue remembering where I left off.This works, most of the time, as does waking the car up first with the app prior to getting in. It's a less than optimal workaround however, and real PITA. I'm sure we can do better...

Yes: one shouldn't have to do this for the music, but it works (and for me, most of the time, I am doing it for the climate in the car).
