Apple Music not displaying all songs by artist?

This has happened since updated to iOS 16 using apple music 1.2xxxxxxxx. If I use "Filter Field" to show all songs by an artist, only some songs of the songs display. Example, if I type "Roy Orbison" the bottom of my library says that I have 80 songs. Yet, it will only display about 22? There is no scroll bar to see any of the songs, and the up down buttons don't work either. All of the albums come up, but how do I see the complete list of songs. Any Ideas?

P.S. Apple, please allow the "Filter Field" to be permanent display, why this was changed I'll never know. It is such a pain for all of your users who like to own their music.

Use the Songs view. Enable any columns that might have the value you're looking for, e.g. artist and album artist at minimum, possibly composer also. If you're talking about a connected device then manual management is poor when compared to iTunes. Switch to syncing with selected playlists so you can control things properly in the library.

You should be able to scroll up and down with mouse, trackpad, or cursor keys regardless of whether the scroll bar is visible. Typically Apple make it show only when in use.

Use Feedback - macOS - Apple to share your thoughts on the filter field.
