I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION!!! It may seem too simple but all I know is that it worked for me. I had asked Siri to start playing music while I was in the kitchen. She did so and it played for one second then immediately stopped leaving the play arrow present and not the usual pause sign. I would press play and again, immediately, it would stop. So I started browsing to see if anyone else had the same problem and obviously there are quite a few of us. I know that this solved the problem for me and I really hope it works for you, too, but it may be something more difficult or simply unknown for some.
So here’s what I did, after remembering that earlier in the day I switched the App Store from the US one to the UK one when I was looking for a particular app. I couldn’t download it, obviously, since my iPhone isn’t register for the UK Store so I just let it be. However, I didn’t switch back to the US Store. When I started to try and think of what could possibly have corrupted my phone to make Apple Music stop any and all music I thought about that app and realized I had never changed stores before so that just might be the problem. And low and behold, it was!!! I went back to the App Store, tried to download the app that isn’t available for me at the current store and when it prompted me to change stores I pressed “Change Store” and it went back to mine, the US App Store. And that right there, was it, Bam!!! Instant fix! It was really the only thing I had done different with my phone. If you haven’t actually switched stores I would still try it. It could’ve switched on it’s own somehow but either way it’s worth a shot. I hope it works for all of you!!! I would be so ****** if I had to build the phone back into what it is today, from the ground up. Too too too much of me has gone into it.

Again, I hope it’s as simple as that for all of you. Good luck!!!
