Shortcuts Music Timer Conversion Error

So I tried to set up a new shortcut to automatically turn off my music at a certain time. I added the “Music Timer” shortcut and left everything as default. When I enter an amount of time and try to start playing music, I get a message saying “Conversion Error: Play Music failed because Shortcuts couldn’t convert from Number to iTunes media, iTunes product, or Media Collection.” And it won’t start playing anything or start a timer. What do I do?
