Apple Music Lossless Prevents Rewind and Fast Forward from Working

After some troubleshooting, I confirmed that the onscreen controls for Rewind (<<) and Fast Forward (>>) do not function on iPhone and iPad with Apple Music Lossless enabled (Audio Quality set to Lossless or High-Resolution Lossless). I considered this could be related to streaming and buffering, so I tested this by downloading a lossless quality track, and the Rewind and Fast Forward buttons still did not work.


Meanwhile, the scrubber bar still allows you to go forward and back as you would expect. The problem for me is that the scrubber is not part of the CarPlay interface. Thus, I am not able to rewind or fast forward within an audio track while driving.


Once Lossless is disabled (Audio Quality set to High Quality), the Rewind and Fast Forward interface elements came back to life.


I have not seen this covered anywhere online. Is this only happening to me? Is this a bug? Or known issue?
