Apple Music Streaming Keeps Pausing

Streaming Apple Music (one of my playlist) on Mac book pro M1 to multiple airplay speakers... since the last update in Mac OS (Catalina), streaming keeps stalling... literally just stop playing...


It's not "stopped" as I can see the "play" button is showing "pause"... and I see the time count is literally stopped... so if I push pause and play again, it resumes playing....


Can't figure out why this is happening. I checked my network, it shows no sign of slow-down or anything. I even turned of notifications in case this interrupts.... but streaming still pausing... after playing 3 or 4 songs. The most songs I've played without this pause was prob 6 songs... can't play any playlist without this trouble...


Can someone help what I can check?


Thanks a lot in advance.
