Mumsnet shutting down Amazon music if I open a thread.

I’ve contacted HQ via email but none of the suggestions have worked so I thought I’d ask here in the hope someone has experience of how to fix this.

This morning I was listening to music as normal on Amazon music and opened mumsnet to read threads. My music stopped. I thought it was a blip but it’s refused to work all day if mumsnet threads are open.
I’ve deleted and reinstalled both Amazon music and mumsnet apps. I’ve turned it off and back on again. Force closed. Cleared the cache.No VPN. Both apps updated.

I’m on iPhone and running iOS 26.3.1(a).

Has anybody experienced this and know how to fix it please?

It seems ok now not I’ll test it properly tomorrow. Perhaps it was a random glitch today.

Facebook did it too but it always did it. I’ve turned the microphone off for Facebook and it’s now ok.

Hope you all get your glitches sorted. It’s so annoying.

I had this earlier with Spotify. Thought it was odd as I don’t remember it ever happening before.

It’s the video ads on the top/ bottom of the page, I think. They play automatically and stop any other sound streaming.

BBC sounds too. On IPhone, is anyone having this problem on Android?

Similar experience but with Apple Podcasts -
my podcast keeps stopping every time I open Mumsnet, it’s fine with other apps.

I am also on iPhone, running iOS 26.3.1(a)
