HomePod won't connect via AirPlay

Suddenly stopped to connect to my homepod via airplay, Spotify or Apple Music are both cannot connect.

Homepod reset couple times, not helped.

Removed and re-installed my Spotify, not helped.

My iPhone IOS and Homepod firmware both are up to date.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you.

So I ended up messaging Apple Support. After a long chat I got forwarded to Senior Support. Eventually, deleting and reinstalling my VPN app fixed the problem. If you have a VPN installed, that may be the issue. I would suggest deleting the app, checking to see if it works, and then reinstalling the app. Obviously if you don't have a VPN this won't work. He did say that any security software running might also be a problem. Let me know if this works for you!
