#Apple Music Playback Timestamp Skips Ahead While Paused After App Refresh

📄 Description:
Hey everyone, I noticed a strange issue on the Apple Music app and wanted to check if anyone else is experiencing this:

I pause a music track and then skip to the next track (which stays paused at 0:00).
Then I refresh the app (by closing it or switching apps).
When I return, the new track's timestamp shows it’s already partway played (e.g., 1:20 into a 2-minute track), even though I never started playing it.
It only happens if the track is paused at 0:00 and the app is refreshed right after skipping.

📱 Device & iOS:
[iPhone 16, 512 GB & iOS 18.5]

Is anyone else seeing this issue on their iPhones? Would love to know if it’s reproducible on other devices or iOS versions.

Thanks!
