How do I prevent other app sounds from interrupting while playing music on iPhone?

The iPhone does not support multiple apps playing sounds at the same time, but some apps start opening screen ads, which may cause the music being played to stop. I would like to know if I can prohibit those apps from playing sounds through the system.

Go to Settings > Focus, then tap the Focus you want to schedule. If a time appears below Set a Schedule, you can tap it to set a schedule for turning the Focus on and off. at the top left. Tap Add Schedule, then set the times, a location, or an app you want to activate this Focus.
