Sound cuts out and slow to respond after update to ios 16.3.1

Every so often an issue occurs, where the sound cuts out and then resumes every few seconds while watching video or listening to a podcast. Also when this sound in & out issue is occurring, the video/audio buttons are slow to respond - eg. pause, stop, exit out of app. This issue has started occurring after updating to iOS 16.3.1 (from iOS 15.2) on iPhone 8. Restarting the app I'm currently using or restarting iPhone doesn't help. But have found a hard reset has solved the issue until it next decides to occur.


Is this a known bug? Is there anything I can do to stop this occurring?

iPhone 8, iOS 16
