touchbar not controlling play pause when there are two sources

Hi, I have MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2019, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) [Monterey] and when I play music from Spotify and at the same time play video on some browser (doesn't matter which one not works any of them) there are buttons for the sources I can select as below picture.


Here is the case, I'm listening Spotify and then opened a video, music is still playing behind and video started. Then I click on Spotify logo on touch bar then clicked stop, but video stopped not Spotify.


I want it to stop Spotify if I chose Spotify to click on stop. Also, it does not work reversely


Is this a bug or Do I use it wrong?

I do not see how having two source this would work...


Try one active source and compare your results.
