HomePod cutting off songs and rebeginning follow song

This problems happened with HomePosOS 18. When I use my iPhone to let my HomePod (first gen) Stereo pair play an album unregularly the song stops a few seconds before it was ended, then there is a silcence for about 2 seconds, then the next song begins for about 1 second, it stops for 1 second and then it begins again and continues playing. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I hope it was fixed with HomePodOS 18.1 but it is not.

Yeah, it's still happening on mine with the update too. I have tried using the music that's built into the Home App and I have tried starting on apple music on my phone and then bouncing it to the pods. It's a little mysterious how the Home App even has separate music, but whatever. The cutting off of songs does feel worse somehow lately. It's really frustrating. APPLE, please listen to us.
