I am experiencing an issue I have not resolved since getting my 2001 Octavia.

Whether connected wireless or wired, on Carplay using ios15, ios16 or ios17, my iPhone 13 Pro will regularly pause playing whatever is playing on the phone. I hit play and it pauses again immediately. I must hit play/pause 20 or so times and then sound resumes playing. It happens in a range of apps. Sometimes turning off the car fixes it. Software 1896 (Ive also had this upgraded previously and it's made no difference.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Here's a 90-second video I recorded of the issue: 

 

Mine used to do this, or just entirely refuse to play at all. 
 

Had the software updated to 1941 (i think) and that sorted it. 
 

Lots of issues with the software on these cars unfortunately. 

Same problem on iphone 13mini. I am on software 1941, and it still happens, but only when using cable (original one). I noticed, that if i plug my phone just before I turn the ignition on, this is not happening as then it runs carplay through cable, but if lets say i start the car, then my phone connects wirelessly and then i plug in the cable, then the pauses starting to happen.
