Cannot use music on iPhone alarm

My iPhone no longer plays my selected song as my alarm since iPhone update 15.6.1. It will play standard tones, just not chosen downloaded music. The chosen song is definitely downloaded on my phone. I’ve also deleted the music and downloaded it again. Dolby Atmos is turned off.

Anyone know the fix ?

How can I set my alarm to play songs from Apple Music on my iPhone 11 Pro? I recently upgraded to an iPhone 16 and now it won’t play my alarms correctly. It reverts to a regular alarm sound. I made sure all the songs were downloaded, turned off Dolby atmos and lossless. I even went as far as deleting the songs and redownloading with both off. I have also restarted my phone. Please help!

Iphone 14 Pro IOS 16 Alarm not Palying music Since changing to new 14 Pro, Music will not play as an alarm. The music is downloaded to the phone and plays when you select it in the Alarm setup but when the Alarm sounds it plays one of the set alarm tones not the selected song. I've tried other songs but the result is the same. Also tried adding new alarm but no difference

Is the music that you have downloaded using Apple Music or any other music app?
