Sorry, there's a problem with Apple Music... still an issue

Hello people

Since the update to 18 the HomePods are screaming, "Sorry, there's a problem with Apple Music"!

The homepods are also cutting out the music, not starting it at the beginning, and simply not playing it for 2-3 minutes after a request to play music (with my apple subscriptions) bursting into life halfway through a song: fun when you've forgotten it was going to do this.

The internet is working fine and speeds are very good, so that is not the problem.

Am I going to have to wait for an update, or is there a fix i've not already tried - ie altering things on the music app - lossless and gaps etc..

Thought I'd ask
