Hi, I would just like to know if anyone else is experiencing the same issue. My Samsung A15 was recently updated to One UI 8.5, and everything was fine until I noticed a music playback problem.
The song was already at 3:50.
When my screen times out, the Now bar freezes at the exact timestamp (for example, 1:17). Even if I play another song, the Now bar stays stuck. This only happens on the Now bar not the status bar, live notifications, or media output.
I’ve tested this with multiple apps (ex.: Samsung Music, Lark Player, SoundCloud, and YouTube Music), and the issue is the same across all of them. I’ve restarted my phone several times and checked my settings, but nothing changed.
The only way to fix it is to tap off the side and then tap the Now bar again, at which point it catches up like normal. I never had to do this before. Is this a bug others are experiencing, or is it just me?
