iOS 18 bug in Apple Music app

after updating to ios18 i have encountered a bug when using apple music. Whenever the phone opens or closes or when the screen turns on due to a notification, the music pauses for a good 3-5 secs and same when screen goes back to sleep. Also when playing music using apple carplay, when i use my phone or when the screen turns on the same delay is there and the music sound deteriorates badly. The sound is completely off and i can’t listen properly unless the phone is put back to sleep. I need apple to release a bug update soon or any solutions as i can’t use my phone like this

Guys I figured out the issue. As soon as I turned off vocal shortcuts the bug stopped.

I can upload new albums but not the rest of the songs that I have in my iTunes library. This is so weird.

Same exact problem. Automatic downloads is off yet it keeps downloading and consuming any available storage.

This also seems to fix my post iOS 18 problem, which is that my side button doesn’t control volume.

It looks like from the patch notes for iOS 18.1 the issues with the music app were not addressed?
