Homepod stops playing — not a connectivity issue

Another possible bug: the HP will, at least once a day, simply stop playing after a random song. There’s no pattern to it, nor is there any connectivity loss. The wifi is fine. And it’s always inbetween songs, not during them.


The interface is in the “playing” state, not the “paused” state. Lessee if I can bung a screamshot in:

Jings that looks big. However, the point is, it will just stay stuck like this (ten minutes so far). It’s happened twice this evening.


While I’ve seen posts about losing the connection, this clearly isn’t that. I’m hoping it’s just a temporary bug, and will try to feed it back officially somehow. I just wondered if anyone else has seen this arbitrary stopping without any connectivity problem? After a solid week, it’s getting pretty ****** annoying.

MacBook, macOS High Sierra (10.13.3), 2017 512GB
