When I start an internet radio stream via AirPlay in Zone A (e.g., bathroom), everything works normally. But as soon as I start AirPlay in Zone B (e.g., WC or kitchen), the following happens:

Playback in Zone A stops immediately

Sometimes AirPlay automatically switches to the newly selected zone

Sometimes both zones lose their connection entirely

It feels as if AirPlay only allows one active session at a time, so starting playback in another zone terminates the previous one
