No title info shown when streaming web radio to my car stereo via Bluetooth A2DP

Hi folks,

this one is quite specific, but it's bugging me, so maybe any of you has a clue on how to fix it.

I'm running a Chinese Honor 7 PLK-UL00, not rooted, with the latest EMUI 4.0 v6.6.16 (Android 6.0.0). I use Bluetooth A2DP to stream music to my car's radio (stock Skoda "Swing"), which has the ability to display info about the music track that's currently playing.
This works fine when I use Spotify (or even YouTube, but who streams music via YouTube) - it shows the current Artist, Title, Length of the song and current position.
But when I try to stream music from a Web Radio app (tested radio.de and TuneIn), the info does not show up. The music streams fine, but the display shows the last title I played in either Spotify or YouTube.
On my smart watch, however, I can see the same info thats correctly shown in the info bar (i.e. the name of the radio station and the current show they're on).
My colleague uses a Samsung S7 edge, and with his phone, the info is correctly displayed on the car radio. We've also tested it on his Mercedes A-class.

Anybody have an idea what the difference may be?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
