Apple Music will sometimes, inconsistently, play back audio content (streamed or local) at approximately half speed after the system has been in sleep/suspend. The only fix is to restart the application, and I've experienced this issue on and off for about a year now. I unfortunately don't have any additional details to provide.
OS: macOS 14.0 (23A344)
Apple Music version: 1.4.0.118
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.0

Troubleshooting a Crashing Mac:
A. Create New User:
For temporary use, create a new Administrator. See what happens when you log in to it. Do you still get this issue? If not, then is it a misconfiguration in the current user. If so, then you'd likely have to resinstall the macOS.
B. Reinstall the macOS:
Nothing would be lost. It's just that misplaced items would be placed back to where they should be and corrupt system files would be replaced by clean files. Go Here: Reinstall macOS - Apple Support. Important: Prior to installing an update or performing a reinstallation, to prevent data loss, be sure to Back up your Mac with Time Machine.
C. A Bug in the Update:
It might be a bug in the update. Apple might come out with a fix, but they'll only know of this if it is reported.
D. Report this to Apple:
Do your Part: Report this to Apple. Apple may not get back to you directly, but the more feedback Apple receives on this, the more they will know what is going on, and what needs to be fixed in upcoming updates.
