The only work around I have found is this:

Open Apple Music. For some unknown reason Apple Music has a section called "Devices" on the left hand option bar. Your iPod should show up there, click on it.

It will only initially come up with the music options for syncing to your iPod. Instead of doing that, click on the button "Sync Settings..." in the upper right hand side of the screen.

This will make the Finder pop up with the right syncing interface for the iPod - why? I have no idea..


Hope that works for you!
