Increased AirPlay Dropouts and Track Skips with Sonoma

Since upgrading to Sonoma, I have had a significant increase in AirPlay dropouts to my three AirPod Mini speakers. I make extensive use of smart playlists that I have curated over the past few years, as I particularly like letting the music player randomly choose tracks according to my star ratings and mood preferences.


With Sonoma, new tracks often fail to play. If I ask Siri to "Restart this music track," the music will begin and play normally most of the time…but not always.


I have also noticed tracks sometimes skipping before they finish playing.


I seem to recall something similar happening for a few weeks last year when I first upgraded to Ventura. Have other users experienced this? Is it a bug that will shake out in a few days or weeks?
