Hey Valerie 👋😊 I've had to deal with spots on my E.Aureum a while ago so I now your pain! Lol 😆
Generally... Over/ UNDERwatering is the main cause in Pothos I've found (the old enemy! Lol 😂) but humidity and air circulation are both really important for keeping your beautiful Hawaiian healthy too!
They like high humidity but HATE drafts! (Which isn't great news for me with my crappy double glazing!! Haha 🫣🤣).
The good news is .. it looks like only one leaf is affected? Is this recent damage that's appeared or could it be historic? My E.Aurem has similar spots on a older leaf, but I adjusted her situation soon as spotted it (& pulled back on the water) and every leaf that's come in since has been perfectly healthy 🥰 it looks like it's an older leaf on yours too... In which case you might not actually need to do anything!
If it really bugs you, you can clip that leaf off it won't hurt her in the slightest!
If your SURE it's not watering or humidity... Check for pests. If more spots appear over the coming week or so, I'd probably pull her out of her pot to check the roots for rot. Xxx

Hey Valerie! I'm pretty POSITIVE it's not pests so plz don't worry! 🥰 It's a common affliction with Epipremnum tbh, and yeah almost CERTAINLY it happened before you even took over this baby's care 😊 she's looking great as far as new leaves etc are concerned so I really think you're ok (BUT! if you have worries just shout! We're always around 😁) xxx
