How do I fix uneven stereo pair in HomePod mini when playing Apple Music?

Hey,, when I airplay media to my HomePod mini (stereo pair) it plays perfect,, but when it goes to next song then it’s just one speaker gets louder than the other,,


but when I manually plays the next song,, then stereo is perfect,,


this problem only comes when the next song plays on its own,,


i only use Apple Music,, and it’s happening from last 5-6 months,,


I called Apple support multiple time,, every single they just asked me to either reset or restart or unpair then pair again,, ITS NOT HELPING…


please fix this.. it’s really annoying

  • Try restarting. In the Home App, tap on the paired HomePods, then tap the Gear icon to bring up settings. Scroll down to select Restart HomePod
  • Force close the Music App you were AirPlaying from before attempting to play music again from it.
  • Test again


  • If it’s still not working reboot your wifi


  • If this is an iPhone or iPad your playing from you might also

Reset network settings

If you're using iOS or iPadOS 15 or later, tap Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

If you're using iOS or iPadOS 14 or earlier, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

  • This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you've used before.
