Problems with new Apple music app.

Since installing the new Apple music app. I no longer seem to be able to playback music from my Iphone to my Unitiqute 2 via USB using the 'Qute remote.

Instead, I now need to pick the phone, open the music app and press 'play' in order to get the track playing via the phone!  This is shockingly bad and huge step backwards.  It basically renders the whole concept useless.

Has anyone had this problem, and is there a fix/settings change that I have missed?

Thanks
