Something is probably scheduled at 9:00. Check these: 1) Shortcuts app > Automation tab - look for a Time of Day automation that pauses media. 2) Settings > Focus > Sleep (or any Focus) - see if a schedule starts at 9. 3) Settings > Screen Time > Downtime and App Limits (Music may be limited). 4) Clock app > Alarm / Sleep - a wind-down or sleep timer can stop playback. Turn off the one that matches 9 AM/PM.
