[iOS] Wrong podcast episode played from Search

[Alex]

We've received multiple reports that when a podcast episode is played from the Search bar, another episode gets played instead of the one selected. This is happening on iOS devices.

I was experiencing the same issue, and  able to fix this issue on my iPhone by going into my recently played list and selecting an old podcast I already listened too, it would play the proper old podcast, then I could go back to the podcast list and select a new podcast and the correct one would now play, it’s almost as if there was a podcast stuck in the queue, and by selecting and old podcast cleared out the stuck podcast.

Same issue. Reinstalled and logged in/out, but nothing changed. Been happening over the past week intermittently but today none of the episodes are playing at all.

Exactly same issue. Please fix it, it’s infuriating.

Still an issue. How is this possibly still a problem?

This is happening for me too accross multiple devices, in closing Apple Watch, iPad, and iPhone. 
Using the above devices 

Version 8.8.32.533

IOS 16.0.2 

I have two videos of the issue but cannot post them, so I have included an iCloud link. I have to jump through a few hoops on iPad to get the correct episode to play.

Can we get an update??? Why hasn’t this been fixed yet? Why is this taking so long?
