The playback can't keep up with the loading

About a week ago, I started having problems with the Music app on my MacBook (M2 Pro).


When you start playing a song, it takes a very long time to start. Then it begins to play, but soon stops. The playback can't keep up with the loading, so it plays for a few seconds and then pauses again because it hasn't finished loading yet. This happens repeatedly.


There are no such problems on my iPhone or the Apple Music web app. The issue is only with the Music app on Mac.


I have no internet issues, all the latest updates installed, and I have restarted my Mac few times.


Has anyone faced the same problem? If so, how was it resolved?


UPD: it is my first post here. I wanted to post it in "Apple Music on Mac"

See if there is anything here: Access your music library on all your devices - Apple Support



A SafeBoot Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support will sort many anomalies


Does a quick disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled temporarily.


Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.
