Is there a way to show track notifications when a new song starts on a Mac? It seems the only way to do it is by initiating playback via AirPlay. I tried connecting via airplay to the speaker after starting playback via Siri, but no notifications show up.

I'd settle for a widget that I could swipe over to, but it seems the iTunes widget doesn't work for showing what is on the HomePod (unless you are airplaying.)

I use my "New Music Mix" every week and I like to see what is playing, but it seems I have to do it via AirPlay if I want this functionality without having to go into the iTunes window or ask Siri "what is this?" And then tell it to add it to my library.
