Music Mini player in macOS 26.2 no longer displays current track title and info without user interaction.

Since the update to macOS 26.2, the Music app mini player no longer displays the name of the track that is currently playing - except when you bring the music app to the front (or set the mini player to stay on top) and hover the mouse pointer over it. This is less than ideal. The primary reason for glancing at the mini player when working in another app is to see what track just started playing. Not so easy now. It's difficult to understand how this user-hostile change to the mini player interface made it into a public release. Perhaps there's a way to force the mini player to always display info about the currently playing track? Please fix this, Apple. Aesthetic tunnel vision should never take precedence over practicality when designing GUIs.
