Homepod stops playing

Since I updated to 16.4, my HomePod stops playing after an hour or so ... I used to leave music for my dog and the music (one of my playlists that has a duration of 1.8 days and was set to repeat) now stops after about 1 hour off play time.

Yes, I've restarted the HomePod, the wifi and nothing is helping.

HomePod cutting off songs and rebeginning follow song This problems happened with HomePosOS 18. When I use my iPhone to let my HomePod (first gen) Stereo pair play an album unregularly the song stops a few seconds before it was ended, then there is a silcence for about 2 seconds, then the next song begins for about 1 second, it stops for 1 second and then it begins again and continues playing. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I hope it was fixed with HomePodOS 18.1 but it is not.

homepod mini skips We're having problems with my kid's Homepod Mini. It's doing the following: stops playing in the middle of a song. Won't play every song in a playlist. If it DOES finish a playlist it just stops. No song plays I checked on the wi-fi and that's good. Not seeing any firmware updates. How do I fix this?

Homepod mini playing from Apple Music restarts a track or stops track early to start next track When playing with continuous play from Apple Music the homepod mini restarts some tracks after about 10-15 seconds or when approaching the end of a track it will stop early to start the next track, cutting off 15-30 seconds of the end of a track. Latest Firmware 17.0 but it was the same on the previous version. Homepod Mini MJ2E3B/A in stereo pair, strong 2.4GHz wifi setup without bandwidth or download problems.
