Issue when playing certain albums via Apple Music.

Hello,

Since updating to iOS15 I have noticed an annoying issue when playing many albums on my iPhone 12 Pro Max.

This problem is present no matter what device I am listing to the albums on.

If I choose to play individual tracks the problem does not appear.

If I choose to listen to an entire album then when track two, three, and so-on play there is a noticeable pause in playback when a track begins. So when say track one ends and track two has started there is this pause in playback.

One album where this issue is present is ABBA’s recent Voyage album.

I have tried all configurations of the Music App but without success. I have tried downloading the album to my iPhone but the problem persists. If I play the album via iTunes on my PC it plays without issue.

Would someone try playing the album from the beginning and see if they experience the pause I describe when track two begins?

Thank you in advance for your experiences and suggestions.
