For the last two days, my Homepods (stereo setup) stop emitting sound when playing anything from Apple Music. Airplay works fine. When I ask Siri to play anything, the Homepods play normally for 5 seconds and then nothing, just silence. The Hompods keep showing the + and - signs like if they are playing the song.
HomePod, iOS 12
Some things to try:
Homepods to play music from a playlist I created. It begins playing but only for 5 seconds or so. However the Homepod
appears to be playing and in the Home App it shows it is also playing. When the next song in the playlist would begin to play, again, it starts for approximately 5 seconds, and then goes silent until the next song and 5 seconds of music. So, it is playing, but not broadcasting anything except the beginning start up. If I play directly from my iPhone X, there are no apparent issues and
plays normally.
Power cycle your router and your HomePods. Any better?

Power cycle the device, if that doesn't work then Reset HomePod - Apple Support. If the issue persists contact Apple Support.

mine just started doing this on the paired set. One will not have any sound for a few seconds.
