HomePod stops playing music

The last few days, I will be playing music that Siri says is a station for me, and after a while it stops playing.


This is something new. I used to be able to touch it to stop music when I go to bed, and touch it to start it the next day and it would never stop on its own.


How do I trace down what is causing this problem?

Last night I tried running music on my HomePod from my iMac. I told my Mac's Siri to play music that I like. It was set up to play on my HomePod and played. My Mac's Music app showed it playing. I opened the Home app on my phone and it was showing that song as well. After a couple of hours, I noticed the music had stopped. I went to my bedroom and saw the HomePod was dark. I went back to my Mac and it was stuck at the start of a song, my phone was stuck at the end of a song. Pressing "=" didn't do anything. I quit and restarted Music and it worked again.
