Homepod & Homepod mini shutting Off on its own.

Has anyone had the same issue as I have when playing a playlist that has over 2 hours of music on it, the homepods shutting off on its own? I don't believe it's the homepods themselves. Now when I listen to Apple's Radio station, it doesn't shut off until I tell it. It seems to happen when listening to a playlist or all songs in the Apple music library.


Extremely frustrated.....

HomePod, 14

Well I got 4 &1/2 of 6 hours of continuous play before it shut off on its own.

Thanks for the response. I updated my iPhone 12Pro, iPad, and iMac to the IOS 15. Then I rebooted the router. I'm testing it now as I'm writing this email. So far so good. I'm into about an hour and 15 mins of a 6 hour playlist. I'll let you know if it plays through.

One weird thing that happened was...My set is I have a pair of Homepods in my living room, a pair of Homepod minis in my office and a pair of minis in my bedroom. When I updated to the IOS 15, both sets of Homepod minis did not work. I had to ungroup them and add them again. The pair of Homepods in the living room I didn't have to do that. Strange.....
