iPhone 13 iOS 15 - CarPlay doesn’t play music

I had an iPhone 12 with iOS 15, everything was working fine and dandy.

I upgraded to iPhone 13 and now music does not play using CarPlay when I am using either Spotify or Apple Music.

I have a 2018 Audi and I use lighting to connect to CarPlay.

When I click on a song either using Spotify or Apple Music my CarPlay app shuts down.

CarPlay works and does not shut down when I use Google maps or Apple podcasts. But as soon as I click on a song Apple CarPlay just shuts down.

I just got my 13 Pro Max as well and it did the same thing to me. I have a 2021 F-150 and it worked perfect till I paired my new phone to CarPlay and my story is the exact same. I hope apple comes out with a fix soon very frustrating.
