Spotify stops playing on AirPods when I leave the app

I just got AirPods and am having an issue with Spotify. If I am listening on my AirPods and leave the Spotify app to go to a different app or lock my phone, the music stops. Any ideas on how I can listen while using other apps or when my phone is locked.
