Apple music looping an arbitrary number of times

The Apple Music desktop app seems to be looping then stopping after an arbitrary number of loops. I'm looping white noise and it'll stop after maybe 9 plays or 14 plays or 32 plays. Completely random and frustrating. Every time it stops, I have to go hit the play button again despite the infinite play option being selected.

Apple Music stops after playing 2 songs from my library Any ideas why Apple Music - on a MacBook Pro M1 running macOS Monterey 12.4 consistently stops after playing 2 tracks from my library? Ie not streaming but playing songs I have saved on my laptop in Apple Music? After 2 tracks, the music stops playing, the name of the first track still appears at the top as if it is still playing and I need to click the skip track button to restart the music - after doing this there are no further issues and tracks play continuously. The problem occurs again after I restart Apple Music, start playing a different playlist etc

Tesla Apple Music integration In the last Tesla software update, Apple Music integration has been added. However explicit content cannot be played although I have it allowed on every device of mine and even on Apple Music website. Anyone has any idea how to toggle explicit content filtering off?

TVOS 16 won't allow me to click on the "even numbered" songs in my playlists! After upgrading to TVOS 16.0, when playing shared music from my iMac's playlists on my 2nd gen Apple TV 4K (using the "Computers" app, and selecting "Music"), I can no longer directly the select the "even numbered" songs in the playlists queue (i.e., the 2nd, 4th, 6th, etc.) on the Apple TV's screen. This happens whether shuffling the songs in the playlist, or playing them in order. I have tried quitting the app and starting again, choosing different playlists, re-starting the Apple TV, pulling the power plug for 1 minute on the Apple TV and then plugging it back in, and even resetting the Apple TV. Nothing works. The problem has persisted into TVOS 16.1. If I let the current song finish playing, it WILL advance to the next song. BUT, if I try using the Apple TV's remote to swipe to the next ("even-numbered") song on the TV screen, it skips over that song. It only acknowledges the NEXT "odd-numbered" song (i.e., the 3rd, 5th, 7th, etc.) as being "clickable." This happens swiping forward or backwards. Has anyone else had this problem with tvOS16? Any solutions? Apple support is looking into the problem, but has been stumped so far.
