What happened to the scrub bar in iOS 16 Music?

There used to be a scrubbing bar in the Music app to move around a track that is playing. That seems to have disappeared in iOS 16: there are only controls for rewind, play/pause, fast forward, and a volume control bar. Am I missing something? The scrubbing function does appear on the Lock Screen, but not when the app is actually open.

MacBook Air 13″, OS X 10.11

I think I figured it out - the song being played has to be in "full screen" mode. You can't be looking at the History/Playing Next list.
