iOS 11.4 AirPlay to AirPort Express disconnects constantly

Anybody else seeing iOS devices automatically disconnect AirPlay audio from their AirPort Express on their own?

Ever since the 11.4 update, it stays connected to the AEBS while audio is playing, but if leave it for 10 minutes after it stops, and it defaults back to playing through the iPad's crappy internal speaker.

Before, I could listen to an album or a podcast, then not use it for a while, and then come back to it and it would still be connected to the AEBS.

But now under 11.4, I find I'm reconnecting it constantly.

No? This is just me?

I notice this, too. I was hoping 11.4.1 would fix it, but it doesn't.

I have the same Problem as well. Truly annoying. I also use an iPad at home just for
Music and Would like to permanently associate it with an AEBS.
