Apple Music/App Music/AirPlay issue!!! Sometimes I have some issues (stop playback) while I'm listening to a song and then I add "as a next" a new song.

Apple Music number stops halfway When playing songs on Apple music with airplay to my Sonos speakers the music stops making sound but the number keeps playing in my screen. It is mostly at 3/4 of the song. Is this a bug or can I do something to solve this annoying problem?

apple music cutting off song and/or skipping ahead Over the last few weeks or so I've run into an issue with the way Apple Music behaves on my iPad and iPhone. I have not played it on my MacBook Pro enough to notice, and it definitely happens more on the iPad vs iPhone. I'm using airplay to two HomePods as a stereo pair in my office. If a song is playing, about 20% of the time, Apple Music is abruptly ending the song before it is actually over. It will cut off the last 10-20 seconds. About 20-30%, it's starting the next song at 15-30 seconds in, playing for about 5-10 seconds, before restarting itself back at the beginning. I have restarted all devices with no luck. I'm not sure if it could somehow be related to new iPhone 15 pro max that I switched to recently? My iPad also recently completely froze up- requiring me to reset it as if it were a brand new device (from an iCloud back up via usb-c to my computer). I've tried Sound Check on and off with no change. I have crossfade off because it says right in the setting it does not work with airplay. I tried to turn off sync library on the iPad, but it switches itself back on. I tried it on the mac and iphone- it made no difference. So, it happens mostly on the iPad, and a bit on the iPhone, and haven't noticed it yet on the mac. I thought it might be a bug with the new crossfade option (even though I have this off)? Welcome any thoughts or ideas. Thanks.

Hi IvayloAct,

It looks like Music is preventing you closing the app or restarting. If that's correct, let's try the following.

How to force an app to quit on your Mac

This should help.

Cheers.
