Hello,
I use white noise on my HomePod Minis to cover outside noise during the morning and stop it from waking me up. I don't know why but this week, the white noise starting having loop problems. So instead of looping seamlessly, there is a short pause between the end and start of the loop. This pause unfortunately causes me to wake up and not get back to sleep.
The way I have the white noise set up is with an automation that begins shortly before it starts to get noisy outside my bedroom in the morning. It selects a specific sound from Apple's Ambient Noises on Apple Music, then plays it in a continuous loop. I also have a scene set up with the same behaviour, so that I can request if I need it.
The way that looping ambient sound works on my iPhone has always been problematic, causing pauses between the start/end of the loop. Until now the HomePod Minis worked though, so I imagine this new behaviour is caused by an update from Apple.
Has anybody else who uses white noise on the HomePod Minis had this issue recently and if you did, have you found a way to solve it?
Thank you
