Greetings idcaboutthis,


If you haven’t already, please be sure to test playing the same music on your iPhone or iPad. Does the something happen? 


When the song restarts, is it then stuck in a loop where it plays 25, restarts, plays 25 seconds, restarts and so on? 


A couple other steps we’d like you to take, to make sure we’re covering our bases. 

Be sure your HomePod is up to date Update HomePod

1. Make sure that your device is updated to the latest version of iOS, iPadOS, or macOS
2. Open the Home app. 
3. Tap or click the More button, then Home Settings > Software Update.
4. If there's a new update, select Update. If there isn't a new update, you can select HomePod to turn on automatic updates and get the latest software automatically when it's available. Software Update also tells you if your HomePod is already up to date, and shows you the installed HomePod software.

A white spinning light appears on the top of HomePod while it's updating. The update might take some time. Make sure that your HomePod stays plugged in while it's updating. 



Restart all devices involved 

Restart your iPhone

Restart your iPad

If HomePod or HomePod mini isn't responding see section, ‘Restart HomePod or HomePod mini’

Shut down or restart your Mac


Thanks.
