Sometimes Apple Music gets into a state where I can only type 1 letter at a time into the search bar. After that, the search bar will become unfocused, and any text will register as keyboard shortcuts. I have to click back in the search bar to type another letter.

If the problem persists, we'd recommend resetting the NVRAM and SMC which can also help resolve this unexpected behavior with the search bar.
