Let's say you have queued a number of songs like this:
| Song Name | Queue       |
| 01.mp3    | 1           |
| 02.mp3    |             |
| 03.mp3    | Now Playing |
| 04.mp3    | 2           |
(The queue is 03.mp3 -> 01.mp3 -> 04.mp3)
Then you press 'Next Song' button and it should be like this:
| Song Name | Queue       |
| 01.mp3    | Now Playing |
| 02.mp3    |             |
| 03.mp3    |             |
| 04.mp3    | 1           |
(The queue is (03.mp3 ->) 01.mp3 -> 04.mp3)
Then you press 'Previous Song' button and it is like this:
| Song Name | Queue       |
| 01.mp3    |             |
| 02.mp3    |             |
| 03.mp3    | Now Playing |
| 04.mp3    | 1           |
(The queue is 03.mp3 -> 04.mp3)
The 01.mp3 is missing in the queue.

I don't think the queue is meant to stick if you change the order, and pressing the previous button definitely does that. 

While I can confirm this behavior, I don't think this is a bug, if you want to stick to a specific order of tracks you need to change the order of tracks in the playlist, not just in the queue. Moving to wishlist as this is the normal behavior of a queue.

Likely related to bug #323732

BTW: reassigning to playback, a queue is not a dynamic playlist.
