Bug: Repeated song-endings (random albums affected).

Hello, if there’s already a similar thread I apologise in advance.

Some (random) albums on my iPod Touch 7G are affected by a strange bug: when a song from that album ends, the iPod Touch repeats some seconds of the song-ending (it can go up to the last 30 seconds of the song) instead of playing the next title.

My whole music library consist of 320 Kb/s mp3 - ripped from CDs. The affected albums play normally on the Mac Book Music app.

I tried a hard reset (volume down + sleep/wake button) and also reinstalled iOS 13 many times through the Music App via lightning cable (not OTA).

After that I manually synced my whole Music library, step by step (109 GB): the once affected albums play normally now, but others (random) are affected and I find that out first when I get to listen to them.

It’s making me crazy and have no idea if it’s only me (hardware issue?) or does it have to do with iOS 13. Similar experiences? Any solutions.

I also faced the similar bug on the old iPod Touch 6G (with an older iOS version).

Thanks in advance!

iPod, iOS 13

I have the exact same issue. Inexplicably the songs are transferring to the iPhone anywhere better 10 and 30 seconds short of their run time, so the phone just keeps repeating the last 10 seconds over and over to make up for it before playing the next track. I cannot figure out how to fix this bug, but it renders music unplayable. I’ve tried deleting the affected songs from my library, syncing, then importing the songs again and re-syncing, to no avail. I’ve also tried to hard reset, turn off and on, etc to get it to work. It feels a lot like Apple hates people who own music. Would appreciate it if this company would fix this bug, in addition to all the horrendous bugs in its terrible iTunes replacement.
