Oh wow! Can this finally solve the “play the first song in Music App when CarPlay is connected” issue?

Yes!

I wrote an automation yesterday that simply says

When Connected to Carplay Media > Pause.

So far, it seems to do the trick. Doesn't require manual intervention.

I wonder if this works with older non-carplay car audio systems. Definitely going to try it out!

I'm so glad my car implements it correctly, I would have hated to deal with that for years
